Oh wow they give out free food to google employees! Wow talk about benefits! no other employee gives free food right? But omg the got a ping pong table, holy s**t!!!!!!shut the f**k up.
Yes, taxes in Quebec, around 24% of your salary is gone in taxes. Depending on your salary bracket... Some pay more, some pay less, that includes healthcare and social assurance as well.
Not much of a 25 year plan there...how are you going find smart people to hire if you don't encourage the smart people you have already hired to breed? Hope that the drunken hillbillies start turning out geniuses?
Whether Google is right or wrong isn't what concerns me. But sweeping generalizations that disparage parents and children don't contribute at all to the discussion. Even if you're single and never intend to have children, it's important to be concerned about families. They're a vital part of your community, your past and present world--and they contribute mightily to the future of the world you live in, just as 'singles' and couples without children do. But single people are part of families too--none of us would ever see daylight without parents of some sort. You might also have brothers, sisters, aunts, cousins--but even if you don't have any family at all, you're still part of a community and we all need each other. You may go through life childless and happy, and that's great--but it's not helpful to disparage people whose different lifestyles also contribute to the well-being of your society.

Well if no one wanted it at $5000, no one would use it and it Google would close it. What's your point.
