What does it mean to be an "American" company to customers?

yes it is an IT :)


It seems so - although I distinctly recall being on the stage. But, of course, dancing fool knows better.

WB - I am thinking of taking some english lessons with him. His linguistic talents overwhelm me

Seriously-I'm just about at the end of my rope with this forum. The number of false accusations and instances of defamation that appear in this forum on a daily basis really wears on people like me who actually have a conscience and an innate desire to abide by laws and regulations.

It is getting beyond ridiculous - it is a mud-slinging forum. Where are the mods?!


Yes - but the problem is (as you can see from the fool's posts) is that many assume that this industry can operate above the law ... all you need to do is take out a website and start selling essays. It is really not a question of whether they are legitimate companies or not but whether they are companies at all!

If I send you a proof a company engages in illegal and dishonest activities in order to gain market position in major search engines - will you help me report the company in the hopes to ban it from search engine listings?

Earlier today, stupid4life created a new username, "investigator," to post his latest, defamatory nonsense about ET. Pheelyks promptly and easily smashed his bogus claims. No need for me to beat a dead horse.

I beg your pardon, I'm in no way associated with that username. I was just asking in general - you offered help and when I offer my help you call me 'stupid'.

That is the exact purpose of this forum, for WB, OR, myself, and ostensibly every other user here. The difference of opinion comes from what various users regard as "proof." In addition, some people posting on this forum--most notably you--seem intent on creating very narrow and explicit definitions of "dishonest activities." I am sure that if you presented real proof (i.e. independently verifiable and objective evidence) of illegal or dishonest conduct, everyone on the forum would benefit.

The basic requirement for a company to be considered American is registration and paperwork that identifies it as a U.S. tied business. Case in point, there are American companies with call centers overseas. The company doesn't become a business in that country. If is still a U.S. based and American company. The service is merely outsourced. Now, with regards to ownership. A Ukrainian national who now holds U.S. citizenship owns an American company because he is no longer an Ukranian citizen. His company is governed by U.S. business laws.

Basically, an American company is one created by an American national / citizen. It must be registered with American business authorities and does pumary business on American shores, states, and when possible, protectorates. An American company follows American business and employment rules. It is American as a business entity and employer because of what comprises the business. These questions do not make any sense because, these are not elements that define what an American company is. Why the debate them? Consider it an education regarding pucaptions and personal definitions of what an American company is to various people. Then go and look up the true American company traits are.
