Some states are actually trying to outlaw open source, these control freaks hate competition and want to destroy what is left of a free market. I would say there is some sort of mad cow disease epidemic going on in America today. Everyone who is utterly insane lusts for power and most others who are sane are too broke and beaten down to care anymore, just wanting to be left alone. More and more Americans are saying we now live in a third world country and looking at the current state of the nation today I would have to agree.
