4 "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it."

I like it very much, but it offended my last boss somehow.

So you think USDA should be growing crops, raising cows, instead of supporting farmers? Do you mean the federal government should be doing all the work, instead of sitting in the back doing some supporting job like study how do preserve soil, testing the effect of pesticide, and letting market and individual figure out how to run a farm?

And DOT should own and run all those trucks, trains, airplanes and ships.

And DOE should own run all the power plants...

Isn't this socialism?

This is not fully correct. I live in Beltsville, Maryland. There is a huge USDA research center here, people in there grow wheat, corn, soy and all kinds of other crops. This google map street view shows the road I drive to work every day, you can see crops are growing. This research center covers area around Cherry Hill Road, Sellman Road, Power Mill Road and etc. And along Powder Mill Road, there are roads named like "Poultry Road", "Diary Road", "Animal Husbandry Road", "Pesticide Road", "Soil conservation Road", I bet you've can guess what they are doing over there.

If I remember it correctly, when MS "injected cash in Apple", Apple had plenty of cash in their bank account, billions. And Apple owned ~46% of ARM stock at that time as indicated by an Acorn computer press release. Apple sold some ARM stock whenever it needed cash over the years.
