Many sources say that Google may leave China on April 10th of 2010.  My utterly irresponsible prediction is that even Google really does pull out of China on indicated date, it will be back in business with China although when will be is hard to say.  China is hard for foreign businesses like Google to strive as the country is prioritizing Chinese companies over foreign companies.  For an example, I had read from many news sources online in which that I had forgotten the source owners, those sources claim China has over censored foreign companies such as Google, but somewhat is easy going with Chinese companies such as Baidu; this strategy is popular with Chinese government may have to do with the fear of foreign invasion of a country’s economy.

China is a country that has been invaded by foreigners by many times in its history if one followed Chinese history closely.  Economy is what made a country although other areas are as just important!  Without a strong economy, a country cannot fund its war machines!  Subsequently, a country cannot explore innovation and be bounded by foreign demands.  This is why United States should only rely on capitalism with moderation in which I mean every system either most excellent or worst needs regulations to prevent extreme unique chaos from happening.  Yes, we all know how it’s so important that US government should stay out of businesses and let the invisible hand does its magic and to soothe people from worrying of Big Brother’s cynical agenda, but we should also support a strategy where US government watches closely how foreign businesses operate within the country to protect US economy.

Google leaving China is a mistake in my opinion, because Google will lose its presence within China, and when Google decides to come back into China, it would be like starting from scratch.  Google’s reputation for standing up to China is going to be greatly improved outside of China, but as if Google needs a reputation boost?  Morally though, Google has done correctly since it’s bravely saying no to over censored, especially when it comes to human rights!  Business wise, Google may see it has to cope with losing a small footing <or a big footing as one could not predict the unpredictable China> within the world.  Don’t we all have to wonder, will Google’s competitors do the same?

Over censored could limit innovation as the potential for anything is being contained within a firewall, but without some common sense censors begged a breakdown of any healthy system.  A personal opinion of mine, and it should not be viewed as a political point for anyone since I emphasize opinion is just one’s rant; all other technological points should be somewhat valid as facts with common sense would be hard to fictionalize; and predictions should not be taken as facts since when did I have a crystal ball that could tell how to get rich quick?  Contradictory?  Not really, just bold words make noisy reading!
