  • phxfreddy <--- troll

  • Obama is the first US dictator! ....he is several GIANT STEPS BACKWARDS!

    ...my god you idiot will believe anything.. Try Ron Paul if you want Open Source politics

  • interesting...

    funny how open-source and democracy are so similar...

  • The grand irony is that Obama is completely cathedral-like. Even more-so than Bush was. And he's a perfect demonstration of WHY we need openness and transparency in our leadership.

  • Obama has his source code open to the public, but is programed by men behind the curtain.

  • From what I have heard, Libertarianism is for everything becoming free-market. Using a completely capitalistic approach including patents and the like to protect groups from unfair practices: ie change 1 sentence in a book; sell it as your own.

    But free/open source software is against that kind of practice. Nothing is owned so nothing can be stolen, take freely and give back freely.

    Open source can't be labeled, the closest match IMHO is: Willing Socialism with an unusual free market streak.

  • I believe open source to be: revealing all information in order to expand and perfect.

    obama open source? it is a nice idea for every government to do this, it creates transparency and it shifts from using only your own knowledge to using your own plus everyone else his.

    it proved to be succesfull for many companies, the first I can think of are T-mobile and Nuon (battle of concepts).

    I am curious about the downside...
