Oh, I see. So it’s disdain for the open source community, is it.

Working for free isn’t altruism, it’s hurting other workers.

FOSS has nothing to do with working for free. A freeware program author can work for free and not touch FOSS. A FOSS project can be developed only by people paid wages for that.

Economic illiteracy is like that.

OK, everyone can work whatever way they want. I just was in a mood.
