The Free Market License (FML)

Copyright (c) <year> <copyright holders>

* Preamble

The freedom of free software is the freedom of free markets.
Free exchange in free markets between free individuals has lifted
billions out of poverty.
In contrast to the benefits of free markets, socialism has led to the
deaths of a hundred million people and impoverished many more.
To ensure that free markets can save humanity from social, economic and
environmental collapse we must protect them from the genocidal politics
of socialism.
It is therefore necessary to exclude socialism and socialists from the
production and use of free software.
