It's increasingly hard to justify not doing business in China for moral reasons whilst doing business in the U.S. If the moral high ground could indisputably be claimed by the U.S. then peoples' views would be different. Now it's not a big deal that Google wants to do business in China since it's doing business in the U.S. It's not necessarily that morality has gone down in the U.S; it's that trust in the morality of America's leaders has gone down. I see this as a sign of a decline in the faith of America's institutions. Also with globalization the distinction between nation-states begins to erode. This is especially so in the case of business.

That kind of moral relativism is precisely why humanity is currently being suffocated by communism. Please take a second to center yourself and then consider that you are retorting an unachievable standard as measure by which the USA must be evaluated "indisputable American moral high ground", and you are doing that in combination with rationalization and excusing of Chinese moral low ground. There is no comparing the two countries or societies, let alone any other for that matter that the USA has lifted out of poverty and defended and secured for decades now and all the USA ever gets is what is really a mentally deranged and suicidal mentality echoing mindset of self-loathing and insult of America. While China and Russia were intentionally starving tens of millions of their own people and abusing them to degrees that are clearly unimaginable to the types of self-hating and self-destructive types as you seem to be, a single American literally saved billions of people from starvation through the Green Revolution ... and that, do you types, infested with post-modern, communist, self-hating, self-destructive ideological subversive mental illness, is the same thing. The moral superiority and general superiority of all things American is so without equal and incomparable to anything any other society has ever produced or done, and yet you cannot see the objects in front of you for all the light streaming into your eyes. It's a bizarre and strange mental derangement. A mass psychosis, that in the end will also choke off the engine that you rely on, the USA, if you don't realize that. Forget global warming, nuclear war, pandemics, .... they are nothing in the face of the destructive force of post-modern, relativist, communist suicidal westerners that are destroying the engine of humanity from within out of manic mental illness. American moral high ground IS indisputable, people's minds have just been so twisted and propagandized that they can't see that there is literally no other country that could replace the USA. Which is a morally superior country and society than the USA and has the capacity to take over from the USA? Let us know, we will gladly take over so they can suffer the disrespect and being spit on and shit in our face for everything the USA has provided to the world, which essentially makes up every single thing you see and have around you. And no, it was not a multicultural communist poison pill, it was teh homogeneous white and christian society that created everything we are still running on, every single bit of it that is being torn own and ever increasingly being beset by parasites.

  I was born and raised in the Canal Zone. While it was still an American territory. Went to American schools and was taught about the U.S. I too once had the patriotic fervor you display. Then I came to the U.S. and slowly realized that reality did not match what I was taught. I do not sweep under the rug the ills our society and government have done. Nor do I diminish their accomplishments. Indeed I don't do this for any nation now that I understand that the blind patriotism I was raised with is a destructive thing. Empires come and go. The American empire is in decline. It may rise again to greater heights and glory. It might not. Eventually it will be replaced. There is no longer any moral superiority in our leadership. It seems foolish to decry Google doing business in China whilst importing billions and billions of dollars of Chinese made goods. Google works with the American government to do mass surveillance on its citizens. I'm not going to get in a tizzy if they decide to do the same in China.
