The only thing that G__gle cares about is making the money terms impossible to get good rank, therefore sparking more PPC, with a stock price like that, how can they sustain any other way than pay services?
First of all it is annoying that you intentionally leave out the "o"s in google.
They don't care about any thing but the mighty $$$, plain and simple, if you people don't see this, you are blind!
They are a company. Their objective is to make money. If you think that is their ONLY goal, however, then you are likely both ignorant and naive.
Why else would they make the money terms hard to get?
Who says you deserve to get them? Once again we must deal with hubris where there might be 100s of thousand or even million pages on a particular subject and people feel their little page is worthy of being in the top 10. Why do you think your page deserves a top ranking above and beyond the thousands of other competitive pages? Google has many factors to deal with and the whole thing is complex. Who says they are making the money terms hard to get? The money terms are hard to get because lots of other people are also competing for them.
If your site is still ranked good, don't worry, it won't be shortly!
Yes. Some more excellent logic. All sites will soon be ranked low. It makes perfect sense in a zero-sum game. Impossible of course, but perfect sense.
All in my opinion of course!
But of course.

If google wanted to make a serious dent in spam or the motivation for spam, they would eliminate Adsense!
Googles Adsense program created a huge motivation for spamming the search engines for top placement, it created a huge motivation for SEO competitiveness and it created a huge motivation for people to create websites that wouldn't have been created otherwise because the website didn't have a viable revenue model. Unfortunately, Google did create Adsense and now because they are themselve beholden to the revenue, they can not clearly get themselves away from the single biggest cause of spam in the last 3-4 years.
Personally, Jagger has not had much effect on us, but I know to others it has and if your website has nothing to do with Adsense and is all white hat, I sympathize with you.
At some point, Google will have to come to the realization that they are the creator of their own worst enemy.
Amen again, yah Adsense is good for small sites that need income but for the SEO spammers ---> AMEN! I agree, it is not good!
