Boycott Google

What a fine statement - worthy of a French Union member.

Do you think that the purpose of companies is to fund politicians' vote buying schemes or to provide profits for their shareholders? I applaud Google for escaping the rapacious looters in the US and British government. Wish I could do the same.

NoExpectations - Gotta go with f.o.g. on this one - Google minimizing its tax hit is a good thing.

I don’t use Google because they are interwoven with the Obama administration. I don’t care what kind of taxes they pay.

My point with the oil companies was that they, who pay more than their share of taxes, are constantly vilified by the left. Ask a lefty about how evil Google is, and you will get the “deer in the headlights” look.

Were Google politically neutral, I'd agree with you.

But they aren't: they're a left-bent company, so this comes off as hypocritical avoidance of the consequences of their political beliefs.
