  1. Debeers vs MIcrosoft by deragon · · Score: 1, Troll

    As monopolies go, which one is the worst? Debeers or Microsoft? I get the impression that its Debeers, but I am not an expert in the diamond industry so I cannot compare.

  2. I'd buy them even if I knew they were fake by umrgregg · · Score: 2, Troll

    It sure beats the hell out of buying the real deal from DeBeers. I'm not really into the whole child labor and enslavement of whole towns that DeBeers doesn't seem to want to stop. I hope their market crashes down around them--it'll serve 'em right for sure.
