    Apple has gained an absolute monopoly over the technology industry! What do you think the government should do about this?

    • Nothing, let the industries be. The economy should not become a political debate, no one is breaking the laws of justice.
    • The government should regulate this company's power in the market, before it gets out of control.
    • The government should already be in control of this company. No individual should be under the control of that much power. One man does not have the capacity to contain such power, unless under the hand of God.
    • There should be no government or inequality of wealth. This industry should have no more power than any other; all are equal.
