Google: "The new CorporNation"

Google's size and influence (media and economic) are such that it has transcended the lowly frame of a mere corporation and have turned it into a CorporNation.

We've gone from Coke=Refreshment, to McDonald's=Family, to Nike=Empowerment, to Google=The Bill of Rights.
