Not gonna happen, so don't worry about it.  Linux is firmly embedded
in the pro-corporate, pro-(venture-)capitalism matrix by now.

Indeed. In fact, I just read the results of a Java developer survey in which 26% of developers use Linux as their OS! This is compared to 24% who use MacOS.

In this same survey, 68% of respondents are using J2EE (the "Enterprise Edition" of Java, *gag*), so this is a very capitalist crowd.
