Already the whining is starting about Google's "monopoly". It's a law of nature - as soon as a company is big and has a pile of cash to be looted, the anti-trust, anti-monopoly grab the loot attacks get under way. Envy and greed are nasty human characteristics and it's not the so-called monopolists who are most guilty of that [if they are at all]. Envy is the province of those who have NOT achieved anything worthy which is not to say all such people indulge envy. People don't have to be envious because other people achieve a lot.

I spend money on Google ads because I choose to, not because they have a monopoly. I like to support Google and am appreciative of all they have done for me. If I want to, I can buy the shares and get a piece of the so-called monopoly profits. I choose not to because they don't look that great to me and there is any amount of competition.

Go Google Go,

Mqurice
