Bravo, a poignant demonstration of the value of collectivism through code. As coders, it is easy to overlook how much we depend on the generosity of others to do our work, to feel entitled to all this infrastructure we can leverage at little or no cost, and especially to not see how this empowering system should be used in other aspects of our society.
Maybe KickStarter for open-source medical technology or textbooks.
Open source software is not "collectivism", which is a moral/political doctrine.
I can easily imagine collectivist code development, but I can't imagine a collectivist software effort that would allow both Ruby and Python, both Java and C# to exist. I mean, if you're making these decisions collectively how could you justify the division of effort?
You can have collectivist things under capitalism (for example, a hippie commune), but you cannot have a dictatorship.
You're going to have to explain it if you want me to tell you why you're wrong in thinking that they're "totally different."
The free market is the economic aspect of capitalism, which is an economic and political system.
Capitalism is entirely compatible with free markets and since it seems to be the best way to produce rivalrous, excludable goods I'd expect to see it in any free market unless humans someday invent something better. On the other hand you can easily imagine a non-free market capitalist system, say where the state grants a monopoly on every good to some company or other, or maybe just auctions the monopolies off. I'm not sure how you can call capitalism a political system, since it's existed under a wide variety of political systems ever since it's time coexisting with feudalism.
