Sadly many people around here get a touch confused when it comes to opensource. hell this site runs on opensource software does that make JR an evil oss guy? no...

If someone is a socialist theyll use whatever they can to expand the power of government, if someone is a conservative they will use whatever they can to reduce it. OpenSource software (like any other tool) can be used to do either..

But there is that "correlation" between open source and socialist governments that you yourself admitted above. It's no accident they are all passing laws requiring open source, it fits perfectly into their long term model. As long as you continue to admit the correlation, you'll get less and less complaint out of me.
