#4  Right wing Neo? Nothing of the sort, nor are we pissed. We simply don't believe their money will actually help anyone, just like the War on Poverty didn't.

Just for future reference. I'm not a Neo-con, nor am I 'right-wing'. I belong to the Imperialist Warmonger Party. The 'right-wing' are no more than fuzzy, warm hearted liberals to us. Try to be more correct in the future.

#3  haha

It’s funny watching right wing neos getting pissed as a successful company ignores them, and rightly so ;-)

#2  It's simple. They are going to be pouring money into the pockets of their 'friends' such as the Democrats, their little pet groups, etc. I rather doubt they'll be able to manage being as efficient as the US govt even, getting a whole 22 cents out of every dollar to the people supposed to get it.

It's too bad as a pubically traded company, the working papers of their yearly outside audit won't fall into the 'wrong' hands. It'd be interesting reading I'm sure.

#1  Google gave the first details yesterday of how it would carry out its commitment to devote a share of its lucrative public stock offering to charity and social causes.

Charity, for the needy, I can see. But I'd be curious to know what "social causes" they think is worthy of pouring money into.
