Google Insurance: Why? Because You Will Need It

The boys at Google are in the news again. This time they are experimenting with drone aircraft. Google wants to get into parcel delivery.They are running tests in Australia. That's not like downtown New York or San Francisco. I guess they want no costly mistakes . After all "What could possibly go wrong with micro drones delivering parcels in an urban setting?" Of course it 's unarmed and like its name suggests it doesn't have a pilot on board either.Its purpose is to deliver packages.That makes FedEx and UPS potential collateral damage.Google has faith in technology. They are the guys that want us all in driverless autos. Also they want us to wear Google Glass so instead of thinking we just do a Google Search. Maybe we will get distracted just a little bit so we also buy something when searching. Are these guys greedy?Any way. The articles that I have reviewed all start the same way. Google's driverless car or Google's drone delivery project..... And then immediately in the next paragraph comes the question. "No one is quite sure of liability questions". But suppose Google all along wanted to get into the insurance business.That's how Warren Buffett made his swag. He took insurance premiums and played the stock market.Why would any one need insurance? No pilot on board! No driver in front seat! That's why you want insurance.

Google Glass. Use A Tool Lose Your Place

Google is field testing Google Glass .It's a " wearable computer with head mounted display that is voice activated".Some of its features include: record a video, take a picture, use Google Now, start Google + hangout, search, translate, get GPS directions, read message, display weather, give flight details.I wonder if Larry Page and Sergey Brin would take a one time payment to stay away from my children? Did I have children to be delivered up to Google for processing?

 Did you know that baby faced Brin and Page share their cherub like faces with Josef Mengele. The infamous Nazi "Angel of Death" who experimented with humans had that same central casting cute face and smile. But all the while he was carrying on tests that would further the Reich's quest for master race uniformity.Cattle cars then. Computers and search now.  Being critical of the Google boys runs the risk of retaliation. It's interesting and revealing that the company motto " Don't Be Evil " was preemptively presented disclaimer before any one else thought about the information that Google was amassing. They have more info than the C.I.A and the F.B.I. I wonder who works at Google that can do private research on extortion or hacking projects that threaten individuals or  governments. Kind of another  take off the film "Manchurian Candidate".

In my 2003 book " Where Are The Meek?", my fourth essay is titled " Use A Tool Lose Your Place". It should be self evident. But more people are buying into Google than bought my book.
