    No, I just think you're using sound bites from knee-jerk politicians, and using a word you don't understand to describe something you dislike.

    Heard of Linux? Not to mention, without open source and cooperation, you wouldn't have OsX as it's based off FreeBSD...

    Also, this thread is pretty much pointless without defining what is meant by 'socialism', a term which can mean a wide number of different things...from soviet/cuban/chinese style 'managed economies', from the pure marxist definition, and even a description for capitalist societies with high...
