Not ok to be successful?
Read George Orwell before you make such a ridiculous
and lazy comparison (no I don't work for Google and don't know anyone who does)]]>Feb 19th 2010 5:02PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/Feb 22nd 2010 10:18AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/
I am surprised Google is still clinging to this "Carbon Footprint", as if carbon is causing Global Warming. Professor Jones (the director of the East Anglia climate center) told the BBC about the possibility that the world was warmer in medieval times than now – suggesting global warming may not be a man-made phenomenon.

I agree with Daniel Morin, competition keep the capitalistic market honest. If there were no competition, capitalism (on a global level) would never have gotten us to where we are today (for better or worse). If Google can do X better (or more efficiently) than the next guy, then let them. ]]>Feb 22nd 2010 11:21AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/Feb 22nd 2010 11:37AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/Google (UK) is registered in Ireland as a Lichtenstein SARL company and so pays nominal taxes there, so as a company earning in excess of a billion pounds sterling per annum from the UK users, it only pays the UK government only 6 hundred thousand in taxes. A fraction of what a "true" UK company earning that amount would pay.
If GoogleLife were ever to come into existence, Rowedahelicon, you would probably have to share that kidney with 15 thousand other users . . .]]>Feb 23rd 2010 4:35AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/19/google-granted-the-right-to-buy-and-sell-electricity/There will be no Hell or Heaven ]]>Feb 23rd 2010 6:41AM
