@fcr @plausocks FLOSS is beneficial in many ways, but I've been saying for a while now that it actually cannibalises the job market for senior developers, who are the ones who actually developed the major FLOSS applications and libraries. It has made it easy for businesses to just inexperienced (cheap) developers and use libraries instead of paying senior developers to do it. This is rational and efficient, but leaves more money in the hands of corporations.

@fcr @plausocks The goal of reducing inequality and increasing job security is at odds with the goal of increasing efficiency and reducing personnel costs.
