Once again some one has replied to me and managed to not answer my question. I'm not part of this thread to simply argue. For the millionth time, will somebody tell me how can a very large group of people live and work together without owning property or getting compensation for there goods?
I have ideals or else I wouldn't be part of this thread.
I'm all for new ways of doing things! Creating, building and "contributing" is the most important thing in my life. I want the world to be a better place just as much as you do.
I think we all to often blame the "system" or the "money" or the "drugs".....our problems lye in how people choose to use these things and our attitudes toward them. People are greedy, not money. I feel our solutions are in educating others to be more compassionate. And to also not make unfounded judgements about others:
>>>>People like you consume, w/o giving back.
We need to have some sort of compensation for the things we make and give to others. I'll ask my question again, In this new world you talk about, where people make things that they don't own and thus can't sell, how are people supposed to feed and shelter themselves?
I think you Open Source guys are a little to idealistic. I'd like to here your ideas on how this new "libertarian" society will work cause I don't see how your free, love & peace ideas will work as a real world solution.
It's simple, really. You build it, you own it. If I design, build and market a Widget, am I expected to give up my ownership of that design so that everyone else can build there own? No, that would be insane. It's mine! Why do we look at data as somehow different?
For all of it's flaws, I believe in capitalism. I think you Open Source guys are a little to idealistic. I'd like to here your ideas on how this new society will work cause I don't see how your free, love & peace ideas will work as a real world solution.

I want real world examples.
