If some one thinks USD 50 billion is small change THEN you guys live in a diffn. world.

No, it's not small change by any measure. But my point was simply that just because an organisation is a commercial one doesn't automatically mean that it is blind and greedy and says yes to more money every time and completely disregards all other issues.

Admittedly public corporations such as Google are more likely to be blinder and greedier than privately run companies because the former are more likely to be exposed to blinder and greedier controlling interests.
