Hi. I noticed this old post here: http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.misc.discuss/msg/243e191086e80bef?dmode=source QUOTE: "Stallman does not care about business. But others do. "Open Source" has been one way to sell corporations their own downfall in a veiled manner. It has taken a brutal but effective toll on stock market and the corporations. Free Software is nothing that you can easily profit from. But it is something that will prevail. " Does this mean that one of the goals of Free software is to destroy software as a source of money, hence requiring people to resort to other forms of business to obtain money that might be much more difficult to start up? (hence limiting them to only people _born_ into wealth?!) Or am I just too paranoid or way off base in my interpretations here?
