Congresswoman, Nancy Pelosi says United States Government invented iPhone, not Steve Jobs!!!
Move over Steve Jobs, you did not invent the iPhone, United States government did!
Or so says an American politician.
Anybody here have a smartphone?
Pelosi asked an audience at a hearing on the Democratic National Convention platform.
They say Steve Jobs did a good idea designing it and putting it together.
The spokeswoman added that Congresswoman Pelosi was mistaken in her reference to AAAS.
But the point she was making is a valid one.
Look, if youve been successful, you didnt get there on your own.
Im always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart.
There are a lot of smart people out there.
It must be because I worked harder than everybody else.
Let me tell you something, there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help.
There was a great teacher somewhere in your life.
Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive.
Somebody invested in roads and bridges.
If youve got a business, you didnt build that.
Somebody else made that happen.
The Internet didnt get invented on its own.
Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.
After knowing all this, its hard to believe Steve Jobs didnt build that, isnt it?
