"Jobs" vs. "Steve Jobs": Hollywood Takes Another Stab At Telling the Steve Jobs Story

theodp writes: Didn't like Jobs, the 2013 biopic about the life of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs starring Ashton Kutcher? Maybe you'll prefer Steve Jobs, the 2015 biopic about the life of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs starring Michael Fassbender. "Steve Jobs is a tech visionary, total dick," writes Esquire's Matt Patches in his mini-review of the just-released Steve Jobs trailer. So, is inspiring kids to become the "Next Steve Jobs" a good or bad thing?

    The Greek people didn't take out the loans. And the failed austerity programme was forced upon them by the ECB and the IMF.

    Now the only sticking point to a deal is that the Greek Government want the rich to pay the debt and ECB and the IMF want the poor to pay. This has now reached a point where the ECB and IMF are attempting regime change by economic bullying, just as the World Ban and the IMF have done in Africa for decades.

    If the banks can be bailed out because they are "too big to fail" so can Greece. And if it was a right wing government, it would be.

    This is neoliberal warfare.
