> rms wants people to live in 2019 but with free software.
In order for that to work, society as we know it would need to be structured completely different. Who is going to build all this free software? How will they get paid?
And before you mumble on about "you can get paid for free software", show me how it is done on the scale required to build a netflix or a facebook. Who will build a device as elegant as an iphone with free software? How will it get funded.
Again, for it to work, you'd have to restructure the whole world from the ground up. That ain't gonna happen. I'm not even sure it would be desirable....
