I understand what everyone is talking about, comunism etc.. but I think people are taking this way out of proportion. All the guy said was that he wished everything was free, meaning it would be nice to have much less hassle about sending stuff trough the mail. I don't think he actually meant "everything" in the world, but even if he did, he only said it in a passing comment, he did not mean it literally.
So where all this "keep your pipe-dreams" and stuff came from I have no Idea, I mean the guy was not saying he thinks this is what going to happen, or that he is somehow going to make it happen, I mean he's hardly passing around a manifesto or something.
Its funny how things can be taken so out of proportion on the interent, because people cannot detect tone etc.. that you would in a normal conversation. I mean how a rant about trading turned into a comunism debate is just hilarious. Thats the internet for you. :p
