Submission + - Google $99 Laptop Program Coincides with Article on Google's Low Tax Payment (bloomberg.com)
adjectivity writes: "Both of these stories appeared in my Facebook feed 'about an hour ago' through Google and Ars Technica. I wonder which one will get more air time and 'likes'?
Bloomberg featured a story last night (which ran at 11:00PM CST 12-09-12) on Google's very complicated tax payment plan that funneled almost $10 billion in profits to a shell company in Bermuda where there are no corporate taxes.
Perhaps it is just a coincidence that today Google's Official Blog announced a program for educators in Kansas City, location of its Google Fiber Gigabit internet project, that would sell its own Samsung Chrome-book for only $99."
