That tim cook is reaping the rewards of their earlier innovation. The opposite of economic rent is economic value creation.

I still don't get your point.

"Reaping the rewards of their earlier innovation" is literally his job.

  • The point is that tim cook is less responsible for apple's weath than the innovators before him, he just reaps what others have sowed.

    • Ok ... so I guess they should stop selling the iPhone ... out of some sort of ... rules? ... that you're appealing to?

      I still don't get your point.

      Apple is a public company. It's mission is not to impress @mjburgess but to make money for its shareholders, which they do really well.
