If MS owns Google, does that mean when I search on Linux - I'll get a 404 (Page Not found Error)?
General Electric owns NBC - MS's partner on MSNBC. MSNBC sells fear. Example - last week - during the Sunspot episode - an MSNBC boggle head said: You better go fill your car and get some cash because a solar flare is going to bring down the satelite grid.
Innocent - excpet when you think the banks charging a two dollar fee for ATMs do a pretty good business.
MSNBC also sold Amerika the war. General Electric is a big defense contractor. Most of the 87 BIllion the congress may approve will go to companies like GE and our presidents father's company, Carlyle Croup.
One of our X presidents, Jimmy Carter, wins a noble prize for peace and another X president (whose son's administration also participated in selling the war) happens to run a weapons brokerage. Go figure. Whats good for GE is good for Carlyle - I guess.
Maybe US dollars should be red instead of green.
>>A scary thought!

>>Do we really want Microsoft and General Electric controlling the information we can access?
>>
>>Isn't GE making enough from the global arms market with the fear they sell on MSNBC? Why do they need to start filtering the information we get on the net by acquiring Google - Isn't the arms market saturated already?

>>This is the scariest thing I've seen since I heard Gen. Boykin has been talking to spirits.

>I saw a note about Microsoft being interested in acquiring Google, but I don't understand what is the role of General Electric in this issue.
Imagination is more important than knowledge
