what else should be free then??? why does not someone build a car for me???
I appreciate your involvement in social ideas. and students and other needy
people should always have free access to basic needs of their life like a
bed, a place to live, food, public health system, education, (including
computer education and software)... but i am talking about business people
who earn their own money. yes, i think Pd should have a price.

so please explain to me your decision to stop developing, if pd would cost
money. do you think some people in the "Pd Mafia" would get rich at the
expense of others??
