$4Bill more for Google, how about the people!

So Google is getting another $4Bill to add to their already many Billions, so that a few silicon valley insiders can go from $10Mill to houses to $50Mill houses. What the HEK is the benefit of that for us the people, the search users &#38; Advertisers. That is why say search with AnooX, because AnooX Shares the Billions of dollars that are generated by the search engine with the People. Here:

So if you want to make a few Silicon Valley insiders even more Billions, pay attention to this non-sense that Google is raising another X$Bill, if you want to make our own (small) businesses more money, lets use AnooX.
