IT crisis looming: 'What if AWS goes pop, runs out of cash?'

WTF?

What, me worry?

Amazon takes their client's OpEx and uses as CapEx and OpEx for their datacenters so that they have the infrastructure for their their season, the holidays. It's a real nice gig and if you bother to pay attention, this guy ain't paying any attention to the bookkeeping involved here. I suppose one could mothball it for ten months out of the year but that doesn't make any sense either. Lighting off is when most electronics gets downright cranky.

Doesn't understand the (warehouse store with deliveries!) business model. Seems Google does, getting people to do the same for their (search) business model. Some analyst! And I have a feeling that the one's needing a bailout aren't Amazon nor Google. Yes, the government. "May we hear from the esteemed Senators from Google and Archer-Daniels-Midland?" That's the logical next step towards person-hood.
