The Apple security software has an enormous value. Requiring a back door would be an unconstitutional 'taking.' It would be equivalent to requiring an owner to burn down his forest so the crook would have to come out. Most of a phone's activity is already available without probable-cause through one of our lackey FISA judges.

When Obama announced his economic advisers I knew that Wall Street crooks would not be pursued and no reform would occur. Who are Hillary's likely economic advisors? I fear that neither Wall Street nor electoral finance reform will even be on Hillary's long list due to the influence of DNC insiders.
