You say that everyone should do as they think is right? Well, I agree to a
certain extent, if I think something is right I should be free to express my
idea and maybe even fight to change the law so that what I believe to be
right becomes legal.
But we must also accept that we can't let everyone do what they think is
right. In Netherlands right now, and as of some years now, there is a
political party trying to make pedophilia legal. That would mean you couldn't
do a thing if a old 60 years old guy aproached your daughter of 14 in the
street.
So, no.... We must be conscious of our decisions, and question our motives.
Just because I think something is right it does not mean it is. I must
question myself and see if it has a solid ground. And decisions should be
made to achieve a better world for everyone, a true utopian community. Not a
society where dog eats dog.
As for your reply concerning my suggested financing system (which is just an
idea, it probably needs work to be made into something usable) you already
support that same idea with free software: If I use free software and want to
change it, I can pay a programmer to do that for me. So, free software
supposedly is not about "non commercial software", but you are against the
creator retaining that right? That makes no sense.

read this comment and my reply (sorry, I was a little emotional after reading
that :P)
That is the world I want to live in. And I don't want to take away people's
freedom to make a living out of it in the process. Freedom and justice and
balance don't need to come with enforced rules on people. If the people
choose to accept only open/free rules/standards, the question won't even
arise.
