Subject: Re: [IP] A very important item -- How to Make an American Job Before It's Too Late: Andy Grove - Bloomberg

This is a great article, but it begs the question: what investors in the US care about "American jobs"?  Greed is Good, 
and if a wealthy person can make more money by not creating American jobs, they are being even "gooder", by definition.

If you read Atlas Shrugged, as so many in Silicon Valley seem to want us all to, there is no patriotism there.  There 
is no love of American culture, or freedom.  Just selfishness.

It's sad, but Andy Grove will be pilloried by the flag wavers who think that enriching the wealthy is the proper thing 
for Americans to want to do.
