One reason for paying extra for closed source software is
that the vendor does in fact fix the bugs before you get it and
does a better job than you can do yourself.   Of course there
are popular examples where this has not been the case, but
that does not mean you should eliminate the possibility.

You can't use something that can't be distributed to you.  You are
skewing your view by only considering the existing software that
meets the GPL requirements and is thus not affected by the restrictions.
Consider instead all of the potential combinations that might exist
and without the restrictions might be allowed to be distributed to
you.  Then you might understand that the GPL'd code is not at
all free to be distributed or used by you in those situations.

Everyone who could not obtain that program was prevented from
using it.  You can play all the word games you want, but they could
not use it as a direct result of the GPL.

Unless you are a programmer and willing to repeat the work of building
a program that combines GPL and non-GPL components, you cannot
use it.   Thus for most people, the ability for someone to distribute a
program to you is an absolute requirement for using it.   GPLed software
where the 'work as a whole' meets the GPL requirements is not affected
by the restrictions and can thus be distributed and used.   But those very
non-free restrictions prevent any of that code from being used in a
near-infinite set of combinations with other code by people who are unable
to build those programs themselves.

You were going pretty good until you got off on your little conspiracy
thing.  The "both have *knowingly* caused massive loss of life, liberty,,,"
part.  Complete bullshit.  Same for your Political Science 101 theories.  It
may be your desire to (1) describe this country in simple terms and (2) to
cause damage to this country, but you just aren't up to it no matter how
much you need that simplicity in vision in your life.  And "blatant" guilt
isn't how the US justice system works.  You have to be able to prove guilt
in a court for a specific law.  Simply not doing what aaron wants is no
where close to a crime.  And he did say he'd shoot those who wouldn't do
what he wanted.

Now, your "so called government" comment really pisses me off. It isn't "so
called" it is duly elected.  And frankly, if you don't like it you are free
to leave.  Please take advantage of that right as you are taking advantage
of other rights to advocate the overthrow of the elected government.  I have
not remorse for those people at Waco, in the Sudan, certainly not even a
tiny bit for Iraq.  I think our government, while it sometimes makes
mistakes, it is usually in the process of trying to do good.  That is in
strong contrast to just about every other government in the world and
certainly those in the Middle East.  People like you, for whatever reason,
find that hard to accept.  That would be your problem.  Same for you comment
on traitors.  The term describes those who knowingly aid our enemies, not
those who you disagree with.  You really need to mature to the point where
you understand that the way this country works is through compromise, not on
fanatical adherence to one's point of view without regard to the
consequences.

Oh yeah, I think your kind are ignorant assholes.  Couldn't get away without
that, could I?

Read the post. I didn't say it was right, I just said that it was.  And of
course Cuba was under threat of invasion.  They WERE invaded at the Bay of
Pigs.  I think the USSR reacted in a logical way and used what they had to
get our missiles removed after they removed theirs from Cuba.  As I said,

One could argue that if party A has created a concept and that concept
was stolen and then taken to the patent office by party B, that patent
doesn't necessarily mean its a new concept... just a new patent.

I disagree on the desktop argument.  By serving install fests in our
local mall, our organization has made it public that there is an
alternative to microsofts o/s.  Many people aren't aware of Linux
because no one has enough money to advertise Linux during prime time
TV.  Many people that had actually took a test drive of Linux at the
mall were really impressed and wanted to know how much it cost.  We tell
them they even have another alternative in Linux: download it for free
or purchase at low cost a distribution.  We have shown RedHat, Suse,
Caldera, Mandrake, and Slackware as the various distributions.

One person wanted to know if he can get a refund from Microsoft if they
return the software unused and disagree with the license terms.  The End
User License Agreement states that one can, but Microsoft won't honor
that agreement.  Hence the monopoly lawsuits.

If it's the *GOVERNMENT* doing it, then yes, it is.

If *I* donate money and/or things a specific person, or organization
of my choosing, that is a VOLOUNTARY transaction.

WIC, AFDC, etc., are not VOLOUNTARILY funded.

It's not charity if the funds were extracted under the threat of
violence and/or imprisonment....


Or how would you like it if *I* were to go around deciding how *YOUR*
money is spent, despite your preferences.

Unlike welfare, working for one's own benefit is *NOT* an artificial construct.

You don't get it...do you.  The more you rely upon government to give

Don't be rediculous.

People was free to puruse whatever line of work they chose.  Some chose
to stay in agriculture (those who were making a decent living off of it),
and others chose to improve their lot in life by going to the factories.

Ah yes, whenever a leftist starts losing an argument, the first thing he
does is propose the abolition of commonly understood terms so that he
can start sowing confusion in their place.

Sorry, asshole, I'm not abandoning properly defined language and terminology

> that is making things very opaque.

Ah yes, another indicator of when a leftist closet-dictator asshole is
losing....refer to anybody who opposes his campaign of enslavement of the
average citizen as a "McCarthyite".

Yes...McCarthy was wrong.


Specifically, KGB records indicate that McCarthy UNDERSTATED the problem.


Hope that helps, moron.

Oh, Hey, Fred...remember this:

Whenever you advocate an omni-powerful government...

Imagine being in the army...your career, and therefore life, completely
at the whim and amusement of those of higher rank under whose command
you fall...EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE.

Sounds like fun, doesn't it.  Sounds like something that the ENTIRE
country should be subjected to....from birth until death

Right...
