He is right to an extent. The _sad and pathetic_ part is that
politicians do stupid things expecting that it will right a system with
tremendous inertia.
* Bush tax cuts (but let's throw a war too).
* Cash for clunkers (ignore the invested manufacturing energy content in
functioning vehicles).
* Tax credits to oil and gas drillers
* Deregulation of the financial industry.
* Private profits in the financial industry - public bailouts
* "Carried interest" management income taxes as cap gains.
* Regulatory passiveness - SEC "fining with no admission of guilt"
instead of prosecuting.
Blame for the above is shared.

No it isn't. It's evidence that the GOP efforts have fallen short. The GOP's primary (if not its only) goal at present is to bring down the Obama presidency regardless of whatever damage may happen to the country or to the lower 99%. They'll do anything and everything they can get away with to further this goal. The battles you see among the party bigwigs are those of methodology, not of goals. -- Tea Party Patriots is to Patriotism as People's Democratic Republic is to Democracy.

Why laugh? The Bush cuts (coupled to a couple wars) initiated the
steepest run up in federal debt ever. Treasury note buyers find that
quite stimulating.

Am not sure how "religious" Jobs truly was about dividends. I suspect he had set a "nest egg" target to ensure Apple could survive a hard time as well as prevent a hostile takeover. Remember that Jobs had had bad experiences with people backstabbing him. With the recent tidalwave of cash, I suspect that nest egg target was surpassed by a significant amount and they can now safely plan on dividends. We'll never know if the same would have happened under Steve Jobs. I wouldn't be surprised if it had. I guess this rules out Apple declaring itself non-profit and becoming a Church :-)

It's a 3 year buyback.

The amount the spaceship and support will cost v. the value of the
buyback (3 years) and dividends (really will come out of cash flow) is
nothing.

As Mezei says, the nestegg is huge enough that Jobs wouldn't have been
able to resist a payout much longer anyway. With Apple getting a measly
1% or so on that money the shareholders have a legitimate beef to get
that money working.
Given earnings/profit at present I'd bet in 3 years that the nestegg
won't be very much smaller despite the dividends and buyback. (The more
you buy back the less dividends go out as well...). The real problem is
dealing with all that overseas cash (wait for another tax holiday, perhaps).

Shareholder desire of a dividend from Apple has been the subject of
speculation in the business mags/papers/journals for a few months - most
so since the 4S went to market (up nearly $200 since).
I'm not surprised it's happening, just that it is so soon.
When you consider that each Apple share represents about $106 of cash,
the $2.65/s is a bit paltry ($10.60 / year on $590 is about 1.8%).
The buyback is another way to get cash back to shareholders. But then
you're "out".

Apple closed above $600 ! Yippie ! AAPL $601.1 15.53 2.65% 31,966,468 NASDAQ-GS Ir is catching up to Google ... :-) My bet is that Apple won't do the stock split until it has surpassed Google's share price.

Cook said today that there is no benefit in splitting the stock or they
would have done it.

But tomorrow, when the price reaches $602, he might decide there is benefit in doing a stock split. So dont take his statement as gospel. He has to say what he said, he can't say what is in the plans for the stock ahead of a formal announcement. A 2-for-1 stock split would bring the price down to $300, and each dollar gained in AAPL would then represent twice the return on investment. Not sure what sort of impact a stock split has on employees with share options though.

When a CEO/CFO makes such a public statement in the same forum as the
dividend/buyback, it is not a flippant, casual thing. This will stick
for quite a while.

Your grasp of first grade arithmetic serves you well. Use it to do good.

Except that the rate of growth ($/share per year) would about halve.
There would be an initial inrush from smaller investors and price rise
which the institutional investors would (happily) dissipate into their
own profits, but then it would settle down.

In terms of notional value, no effect.
The "number" of shares eligible would reflect the split (double for 2:1)
and the option price would halve for that split ratio).

"We have no plans at the moment" simply means "we can't annouce our strategy right away". HP has been stating publicly that they had no plans to port HP-UX to x86. Yet, Oracle documents filed in court show that HP was in the process of porting it to X86 when it made those statements, but was lucky to not commit publicly because they later decided to abandon that project. Also, had they fessed up to wanting to port to x86, it would have made it quasi official that HP was abandonning Itanium, something it paid Intel very dearly to keep a secret. (court documents show an end of life was planned for Ia64, and they paid Intel to postpone it by stretching development times). So CEOs have to be careful not to commit to anything and be vague on anything that cannot be formally announced when they speak. His statement of no stock split simply means that this is not something which will happen in the immediate future. But 3-6 months down the roads, all bets are off. Should the Apple stock rise to $750 in short order, there would also be lots of pressure to split the stock.

QUOTE
... also said that the company has looked at but decided against
splitting the company’s shares, which at this point are among a small
number of stocks trading over the $500 mark.
Cook said that a split is something they have looked at, but he says
there is “very little support” for the idea that a split would help the
stock. He says that if the board thought it was in the best interest of
Apple and holders to do so, they would go ahead and split the stock.
/QUOTE.
Again: CEO/CFO's of public co's cannot make such statements and go back
on them on a whim. It would take several quarterly cycles or a major
event to justify such a change of plan following a " best interest of
Apple and holders " stated opinion.
As Apple looks very cozy for the next few quarters, don't expect a split
anytime soon.
