The only goal of a brilliant person in the this area is to get rich with his own company. I d curious to hear how you handle such conflict of interest.
I'm sorry - what?
I have no abundance of love towards the US society or its government as a rule, but that's not a mere generalization - it's a poor caricature.
I can probably name a dozen American "brilliant persons" whose contributions have permanently shaped the FLOSS landscape - hell, created the movement - without even doing any research or thinking hard.
Berkley and MIT are the birthplaces of the Hacker culture and - last I checked - they were American institutions.
And even if your gloss were true, "get rich with his own company" is hardly mutually exclusive with FLOSS.
