Public Utilities are also run by commercial companies in most of the United States. Verizon, AT&T and Comcast are good examples of that. Most of these American companies must also apply to a governmental board for rate increases. However, these governmental boards usually consist of current, future or ex-employees of said monopoly, who are usually motivated to approve and rate increases. Also, since they are allowed to make a percentage of their fixed asset investment, they will often inflate those investments as much as possible in order to increase their costs, which increases their profits (as a dollar amount). I once knew someone who worked for the local telephone company who told me that he was instructed to throw or give away all his tools every couple of years because the company would purchase new ones (usually the same tools form the same supplier). This usually happens before a rate increase to help justify the increased cost.

You need to improve your reading comprehension. You must of missed the "targeted at the consumer market" part. Most "consumers" (such as my technically illiterate sister) have no clue about command lines, so that is a valid point. However technical savvy people, such as those found on /. (including myself) will prefer that the command line be retained.

According to Eric Raymond, there is no such thing as an ethical software job. All software should be free, which would preclude anyone involved in the production of software of any kind from having an income!

Well obviously it had to care for the baby drone it birthed...
