By the time John and Jan Q. Public realize this is a come-on and a really bad way of doing business, their money is gone, they are out of business and Goggle has marginalized those who looked towards them and away from agencies that were looking out for their best interest.<\/p>\n<p>I could go on for pages about the problems we&#8217;ve had with Google.<\/p>\n<p>suffice it to say, we were afraid to put blogs out there for several months because of the way Google opened us up to damage by those looking to wreck havoc. \u00a0Now we&#8217;ve decided to just go on, ignore the possible problems and hope there is a fix for them someplace &#8211; Google isn&#8217;t interested in fixed anything. \u00a0You can post your problems on a public board and hope someone responds and helps you out of a mess. That doesn&#8217;t happen very often.<\/p>\n<p>If your problem is of a very delicate nature that could hurt you if it gets out before a fix gets put in place you are flat out of luck.<\/p>\n<p>How have we ever allowed a company which is violating everything we hold dear and close in this country to not only survive but to thrive?<\/p>\n<p>If this keeps up there will be a new company in Bettina&#8217;s Hall of Shame and Bettina&#8217;s Box of Shame.<\/p>\n<p>________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bettina-network.com\/blog\/donation-page\">Learn More About How We Use Your Donation!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[give_form id=&#8221;3763&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to join us?<\/strong> Have a home that you want to open to become one of <strong>Bettina Network&#8217;s Hedge Schools?<\/strong> Call us and lets talk &#8211; or email us.<\/p>\n<p>Ed.
