Globalization, trade, and the nuclear deterrent.

$1 trillion; this is why the US has no health care. Does anyone realistically believe you will go to war with China or Russia anymore?

It's time to stop the charade of war, and help your own citizens instead.

Agreed.

Where are the grants for women to work in the building trade? Or for men to work as nurses? Both are under-represented in those fields.

Plenty of fields have a gender imbalance, but they don't present it as a problem.

I'll wait for the easter egg where you can go inside the NSA data center in Utah. Google should have lots of photos given their close relationship.

Google's PR department seem to be working overtime. I guess after the NSA revelations their public image took a nosedive, developers with strong morals have probably abandoned that sinking ship. I'd rather work for Oracle right now.

What a blatant PR attempt to put lipstick on a pig.

Do not forget who we're dealing with, Google gave the NSA unrestricted access to every system without any legal challenge. No amount of pretty photos will make up for that.

Yes. It's worse that you don't even have ignorance as an excuse.

Sorry, I thought this was _hacker_ news. Setting up self-hosted email is utterly trivial.

Sure, no problem.

Gmail: Self-hosted qmail or exim

Google Maps: OpenStreetMap

Hangouts: Jitsi

Android: Firefox OS

Search: Startpage

Chrome: Firefox

Google Drive: ownCloud

Anyone still using Google services since the NSA revelations is an idiot. I'd like to see them bankrupt after their betrayal of their do-no-evil and open source roots.
