from which perspective is the admiration? Labor? Investors? Populist opinion? Customer?

Did you know that Kohn-ta-nehntal was voted one of the best places to work? Bid a month of reserve and see for yourself.

Apple could make all it's stuff in America and still turn a handsome profit. So I imagine this value judgement is being made by capitalist pigs.

I would guess that if you have a job it is also run by "capitalistic pigs".
Thanks for sharing that with us.

As opposed to what other kind of pigs? Or are you attempting to claim only capitalists are "pigs"?

Right there in the wheelhouse with “The fuzz” …“Down with the Man” …Blow Your Mind”…Do Your Own Thing”…”hell no, we won’t go”…and the ever crowd pleaser; “Hanoi Jane.”
Wait, only a Capitalist Pig "like me" would remember these bygone sayings.
Hope I didn't get to far off the leash with this.

Criticizing the author(s) of the list is pointless and is a bad argument.
There is certainly room to take exception with some or all of the companies on this list. You've begun this with AAPL. You might have a great point, give us some facts.
