Google Quote du Jour: Capitalism is Evil
In a generally puzzling FT article about Google's aggressive hiring plans in Europe, the prize for the strangest quote in the entire piece goes to Nelson Mattos, Google's new head of engineering in Europe:“We are not seen correctly in Europe. My impression is that Google is seen as a big US company that is here to make money."Right. Big, American, and profit-seeking -- the thought makes me queasy. Next thing you know companies will start paying people to do work and stuff. Awful thing, capitalism. Evil.
