#1, why is this on the main page? If Job's nephew's cousin's roommate gets busted for weed, will that be on the main page, too?
#2, for a man who was very pro-business and lower taxes Jobs sure did keep some interesting company
#1, Yes, it probably would be.
#2, Steve was a bit of a political schizophrenic. His wife was always a very active liberal, but Steve was not outwardly involved in politics. As a grown up California Hippy it only makes sense that he identified with liberal social politics, but as a businessman he clearly didn't identify with democratic economic policies.
Really I think he was like most modern Americans, socially liberal but fiscally conservative. Sadly, neither political party embodies these sentiments.
