I try never to use the word stupid in my blogs. First it is an ad homonym attack, second it seldom provides useful information about the subject under discussion.
The subject that tempts me in the direction of the word stupid is the perpetual attacks on Google for antitrust reasons.
Google is the Pied Piper walking through your town with a dictionary in his hand and nearly everyone is following him. That seems to infuriate every living lefty.
Google offers nothing but information. Not just information but secondary information that Google has found (hence the use of a dictionary in my metaphor). Google uses open-source for most products, like Android.
The first source of this Google antagonism seems to be that Google is big. But Google is not big by the standards of anyone who knows business.
Secondly, there is nothing inherently wrong about a business being big. That is the norm, world wide, in automobiles, oil, natural resources, telecommunications and any other field that requires large amounts of capital. Think in natural terms. For every million blades of grass, there is one bush, for every thousand bushes there is one tree and for every thousand trees there is one giant Sequoia.
Lastly and most importantly, Google has no, I repeat, no natural monopolistic barriers that keep anyone else out of the field. If Google does not offer the services its customers want, another company will provide it. Think Bing.
Google satisfies its customers and that is the source of its size and success. In the pro-commerce world that is a service monopoly. It has no relation to economic concepts of monopoly.
