    No, world doesn't revolve around USA as much as Americans think, and no it's not that good of a country.

      Apple is trying as hard as they can to nerf any alternative to their monopolistic stores.

EU citizens shouldn’t buy iPhones since they are “overpriced.” Apple would leave the region and you all can go back to your Nokia 3310s and Doogee/meizu android paradise.

                                      If people didn't flock to monopolies like sheep and gave the 'little companies' a try, it wouldn't be necessary for governments to treat the monopolies as if they're government-owned public services that have a duty to allow capitalism.
