"There's a faction against that, the so-called general GPL source license
free software foundation, that says that these other countries other than
the U.S. should devote R&D dollars in the so-called open approach, that
means you can never commercialize that software. And it is an interesting
choice to deny -- for a country to deny itself the benefits of these
high-paying jobs and the kind of taxes that let countries fund their
universities, and fund general research that then goes to renew that pool of
commercial R&D. Clearly there's an ecosystem there that has worked extremely
well in the United States, and has probably been the unique thing that has
let that push forward. And there is now a recognition that it's really a
question of policy of allowing the so-called capitalistic approach to win
the day there."
