We could send construction engineers to China. Some would help with constructing dams to assist in solving their seemingly constant flooding problems, and others would assist in building political prisons and labor camps.

One is great. One is not.

So it is a case by case basis for me, and not a complete elimination of any economic dealings with the Chinese.

There are pursuits in China that I think are admirable and/or profitable. There are pursuits in China that are not. I think Google, with a slogan of "don't be evil", assisting the Chinese in government sponsored censorship with specific regards to political speech and dissent, is in and of itself evil, regardless of their position about giving info up to the US government. I find the variance to be ironic. I find the practice in China to be immoral.

I have commented on Google, and not specifically about Yahoo or MSN, because that's what's been in the news. So I commented on that.
