Posted July 5, 2014 Finnish Prime Minister said (or accused, as Financial Express used this term) in a interview with Swedish financial newspaper Dagens Industri. , that Steve Jobs "crushing his Nordic country's job market by selling innovations that caught Finland's companies off guard", Financial Express reported. "We had two pillars we stood on: one was the IT industry, the other one was the paper industry," Stubb told Swedish financial newspaper Dagens Industri. "Nalle Wahlroos, president of (Swedish bank) Nordea, described it quite well when he said the iPhone knocked out Nokia and the iPad knocked out the forestry," accelerating the fall of paper demand. Stubb became prime minister at the end of June with an economy struggling to recover from two years of recession. Only timid growth is expected in 2014. "Yes, Steve Jobs took our jobs, but this is beginning to change," Stubb said. Unfortunately you have to subscribe to the newspaper's website to read the whole article....But another site, PatentlyApple, posted a snippet of the interview, that said was from the newspaper...

Posted July 5, 2014 Sorry to all the Fins, but this is just mental, coming from a politician... Something I would have expected from the Tea Party cuz they like making completely irrational comments like that.
