In an interview discussing Finland's recent sovereign debt downgrade, Prime Minister Alexander Stubb said Apple's iPhone and iPad helped kill Nokia and the paper industry, both vital cogs in the country's economy.

Wouldn't it be that Google kicked Finland's arse, since you know, Android has 80% worldwide smartphone market share and didn't copy anything from Apple?
ETA: Whoops, forgot that Apple = Evil = Clickbait & Google = Does no Evil = who cares
ETA2: Let's not forget Nokia's own role in this as well as Microsofts. Nokia hired Elop (then a former and now current Microsoft exec) and put a contract in his clause that basically said if he tanked the company and sold off the hardware division he would receive a golden parachute.

I think I remember reading a piece a while back that said Scandinavian countries buy more iPhones than any other smartphome by far.
Sounds to me like those ex-Nokia assembly line and paper mill workers need to start their on Foxconn.

I'm just trying to help out the PM of Finland. To correct the problem, you first have to identify it.
