The Chinese (Web Servers) Are Coming

Glyn Moody writes "The February 2009 Netcraft survey is not the usual 'Apache continues to trounce Microsoft IIS' story: there's a new entrant — from China. 'This majority of this month's growth is down to the appearance of 20 million Chinese sites served by QZHTTP. This web server is used by QQ to serve millions of Qzone sites beneath the qq.com domain.' What exactly is this QZHTTP, and what does it all mean for the world of Web servers?"

Naw, a Democratic President would never condone internet censorship. Only a Republican President would ever sign something like that into law.

However, you should consider that giving a tax cut to consumers means they will spend money, and they will give the money (in theory) to those which are best equipped to survive, and those businesses will therefore be able to cut jobs.

But where do these people spend their money? They're not investing it.

They spend on computers, or televisions. Things built in china. They spend it on cheap, non-american cars. Giving money to the poor is good way of flushing into other economies. Giving it to the rich (in the form of doing things like cutting the capital gains tax) is a great way of keeping the money IN the economy.

This isn't speculation. This is reality. Open a history book and take a look at what happens when you cut taxes for the wealthy and for the corporations that they run, then take a look at what happens when you take the money away from the rich and give it to the poor.

Warm fuzzy feelings or not, giving money to the poor is one of the most idiotic economic moves you can make.
