Let me ask you a question, Gigs. Why do you want everything to be free?

Why do you want - when we could (and do) have a system which, while not perfect, puts permissions on items - why do you want to abolish this?

Why, when there are technical means, do you want to get rid of them and take away what protection we have, and the protection we all started SL with, just because some people can find their way around them?

Do you dislike the fact that people make money off the things they make and sell, or what?
