Facebook To Form Its Own Political Action Committee

Don't most companies have PACs these days (employee-organized of course).

"will give our employees a way to make their voice heard in the political process by supporting candidates who share our goals of promoting the value of innovation to our economy while giving people the power to share and make the world more open and connected”

Talk about a mouthful. Hey guys, what about World Peace?

doesn't it seem that being more open and more connected are a bit at odds?

probably a stretch but connectedness implies things are tied together - openness implies they are unencumbered.

nevermind, I'm overreaching here.

understandable. My overreaching usually happens in the bedroom though.
