------------LMAO! From your very own source, which you yourself quoted!

^^^^^^Capitalism is a social system based on the recognition of individual rights, including property rights, in which all property is privately owned.^^^^^^^^^-------------

*yawn* If one wishes to give away their private property, that is their right as an individual. Did you notice how their emblem says individual rights and not property rights? You've already lost the argument so now you are simply ignoring the word *INCLUDING* which is what I said.

If open source was based on socialism or communism(as you keep stating) that choice would never be made.

You should stop this charade before it gets much worse. All you are doing is proving that you don't even understand the economic system you so profess. To limit capitalism down simply to property rights(and money) is a bastardization of the system.

Individual rights includes but is not limited to property rights.

I never said it wasn't, I was ridiculing your contention that act was "the very definition of capitalism", which remains ludicrous.
