If we had a functional government with people in charge who gave a shit about stuff like rules etc, I bet that they would start to plan on boat and summer home purchases.

    What's stopping Google from setting the course and only showing ads where they want it on, killing everything else?

Functional anti-trust laws and a pro-consumer FCC. There is a reason this is going to happen now.
