MASSACHUSETTS(AP) - The popular news site Slashdot.org, whose readers have made mathematics news many times over, has once again shown it's "nerd" superiority by having its readers prove that the latest math theory, known to mathematicians the world over as the "there is one, and ONLY one real 'first' anything" theory to be completely false, as not one, not two, but THREE people claim to have created the popular "first post" in a recent forum. "Yeah," says a site honcho who goes by the name CmdrTaco. "None of them were even really in the first position, but obviously they have proven once again that it does not matter in the slightest." Officials at the Nobel Committee are consulting the spirit of the long-dead mathematician Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar to see if an award shall be considered for a person by the name of "Anonymous Coward" (current address unknown).

It is intresting how you define "slavery", "properity", and "freedom". Freedom for whom? We have conflicting interest here, those of the employee and those of the employers. But I take it that in America "slavery" is slavery, and "progress" is progress only from the point of view of the employers. As for the issue "steeling" of trade secrets, I refer you to common sense. If you want to keep something secret, either don't tell everyone, or pay good money so your employees will keep it secret; so if you only pay them $30 per hour, common sense tells you that you should not expect too much. But no! You want to pay $5 an hour and create laws so you can silence them on the cheep. Whether this means that others will not be able to find so job the can live, it means nothing to you. If this is the american way, this then is terrible. And no, your intelectual reasoning is ignored if this is against MY interestes.
