It seems that Heartland, who openly support free-market solutions, have sided with the major monopolist in the area of office software.
Heartland also side — it looks — with other biassed major funding providers, such as manufacturers of smoking equipment — thus supporting (in the face of public policies) a habit/addiction destructive of hearts and wasteful of both lives and resources.
Big surprise, HL’re apparently on good terms with the vocally anti-FOSS and likewise Microsoft-sponsored Cato Institute.
CI is a business with a setup which confuses me: they call themselves libertarian but often come down against organisations or people with policies which appear to strongly support CI’s purported basic motivation.
The whispered message here is that CI’s public and private aims are different — maybe even opposite, in practical terms — which also seems to be so with Heartland.
I guess their MS sponsorship doesn’t help them to found clear perspectives.
I’m looking for effective ways to either bring in behaviour which matches the official policies, or at least to guide these bifocal politicians into publicly renouncing their alliances of conveneience, which appear to all massively undermine said policies.
