Richard Stallman is responsible for the shrinking economy in US and
Weston Europe
GNU licenses and open source software is the reason why many
electronic devices in the commercial market have cheap imitations with
poor quality software designed and built in China. They do not need
to spend money in developing the software, free software is taken from
the internet for profit. For example many products in China are built
using the Micrium uC/OSII RTOS without fees paid or heavily modified
linux against the license agreement.
Free software available on the internet has devalued the apparent
output of any firmware developers output. This leads to Managers and
Directors belief that they do not need to spend money or time on
firmware developments costs. Therefore approximately 75% of the
development costs of a product is squeezed to near zero.
