The Q in In-Q-Tel

It’s funded by the CIA.

Was the tax appropriation for this commercial subsidy and market involvement — wonder how MySpace and AltaVista feel — spelled out by Congress?

Doubt it. Did you know that our government has apparently spent $21 trillion off the books since 1998?

For what it’s worth, that’s about what our national debt is for which we are paying $365 billion in interest, expected to increase to $447 billion next year.

We’re just reporting this to make you feel warm and comfortable that you have a Big Brother looking out for you.

The Q in In-Q-Tel  is an intentional reference to Q, the fictional inventor who supplies technology to James Bond.
