It’s quid pro quo all the way. Government is utterly broken in America. We finally have what liberals have wanted all along - A European America.

It’s teachable how the Left SRM went nuts over Cheney being a former board member of Halliburton, yet the blatant, in your face, pay to play croneyism of the Regime is completely ignored.

A little history. Microsoft had almost no government interaction/lobbying for the first decade and more of their history. Then in the 90s the DOJ went after them on antitrust grounds. They quickly bootstrapped a large lobbying effort as a self defense move.

It could be argued that government causes these companies to get in bed with government.

The Microsoft case (circa 1998) was the last major monopoly case I recall the government bringing.

Glad you posted this, read it this morning in the paper.
Sounds like Google was an integral part of WH ops, pre-eminent among the crony capitalists.

I assume all those contribs by S&P 500 companies to Podesta’s Center for American Progress are basically trying to buy amnesty against the avalanche of regime controls.

https://www.startpage.com/ which is another search engine that is not supposed to give your info to Google

I have had it with Google
