    What morality do you derive from creating competing works and throwing them out for free across from where someone is trying to make a living from similar product? -It’s what GPL is all about, and Linus and RMS both live high off the hog instead of living to their commie ideals -the same way communist leaders do.

    Sure, some developers find ways to monetize their work, but many don’t and shouldn’t have to. The ones that do are also catering to the competition while pretending to be competition (like Firefox). -As such, they end up playing politics instead of being run like a business.
