Yes.
Yes.
Every action in this world has consequence.
Anarchy is only practicable in a vacuum.
Government bereft of morals becomes tyranny.
Morals are derived from one's beliefs.
Shared beliefs constitute a religion.
(even atheism is a religion)
It is impossible to separate politics from religion, or business and science from either. One who employs a tool, without considering the consequences of their labor, is simply being used as a tool by others.
(burp!)

My premise is grounded on how people chose to use technology. It is premised on considering not only on how persons chose to use technology but also what institutions these people work in.
According to you people used as tools don't have a choice -- they're" slaves", foved to work against their will. That's mighty naive of you newbie. If not naive, then it's intentional and if that's the case you're beyond hope.
Politicians and bureaucrats manipulate followers to support their cause as do religious leaders manipulate followers to support their cause. How people chose to use technology is a personal choice.
People wielding politics and religion often use technology to inflict death and destruction. People creating business values use technology to benefit man and society.
Your other comments are senseless babble wherein you assume a need to set up strawman arguments.
The smallest minority is the lone individual. Protect the life and property of the individual and all minorites and the majority are protected.
One law, a thousand laws nor a million laws can rule the world. It would take at least three laws for persons to peacefully coexist. Though no amount of laws can guarantee peaceful coexistence. Ultimately people must rule themselves to abide by the following three laws.
Law 1
The initiation of force, threat of force, or fraud by any person, group of persons, or government against any individual's self, property or contract is prohibited.
Law 2
Force is justified morally, ethically and legally only when used only for protection from those that violate Law 1.
Law 3
There will be no exceptions for Laws 1 and 2.

CowboyJay: One who employs a tool, and considers not the ends to which it is being employed is an idiot (at best),116
You failed to acknowledge how government and politics uses some technologies toward death and destruction juxtaposition to how business doesn't use technology to benefit man, not death and destruction
CowboyJay: and toils towards another's goals whether he intends to or not.116
Dr Mengle proclaims, "I was just doing my job." Absolves him of responsibility, right newbie?
I very much accounted for what institution is employing the technology and how each institution deployed the technology. Your "idiot" comment -- the whole sentence -- is a projection.
projection: 6 b: the attribution of one's own ideas, feelings, or attitudes to other people or to objects; especially : the externalization of blame, guilt, or responsibility as a defense against anxiety Definition of projection - Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
Microsoft is supposedly coming out with a search engine better than Google, wonder if they saw this coming.
I don't think so. I just tried some of the same searches others have and got nothing. Minitru is still trying to block The People's Cube.
That's why I;m in the process of switching to another.
I have clusty installed and am working on more. I just can't figure out how to delete everything with the word "google" in it. When I turn on my comp. I still have the google page in front of me. If you are anyone knows how I can wipe this comp clear of anything that has to do with google, I'd appreciate it.
They got deleted because of spammy stuff and got caught. Matt Cutts pretty much outed them...
Peoplescube was using hidden text and hidden links.

I've met Matt several times and he is a great guy.
Absolutely not. Government and religion are capable of producing either good, or destruction, as are science and business. Please note that church members in our country typically have longer lifespans than non-believers.

Well, there you go. Half of Freeper Nation is going off half-cocked again.
Although it is true the Big Cheeses at Google are a bunch of Bay Area Enviro-Lefties. Or at least were big Kerry supporters. A good friend of mine barrowed a car belonging to the brother of Google's founder. That's right, a Prius with a Kerry for President sticker.
Government and religion are capable of producing either good, or destruction, as are science and business.
A gun or weapon cannot do good or bad. Only persons can use a gun or weapon to do good or bad. If you still don't understand that then you're beyond hope.
People can do good or bad. Historically, politics and religion is where most death and destruction happens by the hands of bad people. Historically, business is where benefits to man are created by the hands of good people, and business does not cause death and destruction least wise not even one percent as much has happened in politics and religion.
Thanks for the update.

There was never a debate about this point. In your earlier posts, you seemed bound and determined to absolve Google of responsibility regarding their self-censorship in dealing with Red China, and the apparent allegation that they are putting the screws to thepeoplescube.com.
"business does not cause death and destruction least wise not even one percent as much has happened in politics and religion."
It has the potential to cause both when individual, or group, greed runs amok. Politics and religion have a legitimate reason to intercede when it does. Slavery in America was ended by a politician (debate the motivations if you like, but you can't deny the fact).
