Steve Jobs Free Enterprise

"Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful, that's what matters to me." Steve Jobs needed the free enterprise system to make an impact on cellular technology. He created a huge tower of success through free enterprise.

A free enterprise is an economic system where few restrictions are placed on business activities and ownership. The type of technology Jobs used was different than most entrepreneurs. Cell phone technology or mobile cell phones allow any one person to speak privately to another. Today, it is much more than that. Users of Steves' Apple IPhones can do just about anything trough their phone immediately. Due to the accessibility, Jobs quick wit and innovation has caused an uproar in other countries that does not allow free enterprising.

    If entrepreneurs can create products that consumers demand, they can make a large amount of profit and become extremely successful. The reason for this is that since consumers have the ability to earn their own money and spend it however they would like, they buy whatever goods and services they want in whatever amounts they please. Therefore, if a business can figure out what it is that consumers want, in large supply, and give it to them at a price that they are willing to pay, then that business can be sure of success in those regards. Without the free enterprise system and its central idea of supply and demand, Bill Gates could not have become so successful in his business endeavors by selling as much product as he did. Free enterprise enables producers to take advantage of the law of supply and demand and use it to their own benefit by creating the products that consumers want, so that businesses are able to become successful and earn substantial amounts of…

    Isaac Newton through his laws of physics or “Newton’s Laws” set the stage for the Enlightenment also known as The Age of Reason, which occurred in the 17th and 18th century. If Newton was able to determine laws around planets there could be natural laws around how people behaved. These laws would be considered universal and through the Enlightenment period, the philosophers would attempt to discover them. Our society would not be what it is today if it wasn't for the ideas generated by four philosophers: John Locke, Voltaire, Adam Smith, and Mary Wollstonecraft. They changed our society and formed the capitalist democratic world that we live in today.…

    The classical liberal ideas of limited government and laissez-faire capitalism impacted the 19th century society because of how there was no regulations or rules in the economy. The capitalist economy was based on Adam Smith’s idea of the invisible hand, where there was no government involvement or the “hands off approach”. The classical liberal idea of no government involvement had a large impact on society. There were no laws protecting workers, minimum wage, the environment, or child labor. This allowed workers to be easily exploited by the owners of factories or mines.…

    In Malcolm Gladwell 's New Yorker article “The Tweaker,” he opens with a quote from the late Steve Jobs saying “I 'll know it when I see it” to introduce that Steve Jobs was not a genius inventor but, a brilliant tweaker. Gladwell recognizes that Steve Jobs was an exhausting, and complicating man. Jobs would see models or items, demand that he did not like it and then describe, make or have other people make other options until he decided which one he liked best. Gladwell shows that Jobs was alike other tweakers of previous generations, for his technique of taking ideas and tweaking them to his liking.
