We NEED AmigaOS to go open source

@persia and amiga dave
don't blame our leaders for our current crisis. Presidents Clinton, Bush, and Obama are not the cause.
The internet bubble, Enron, the real estate bubble and others cost our economy trillions of dollars. no country can absorb that without effect.
this is a democratic capitalistic nation, our leaders are legally allowed to do so much. if it were a communist nation we wouldn't have been so prosperous in the first place, but the leaders would have had more power.

ummm... yay aros one of the coolest bright spots in the current amiga picture. minimig and uae are other.

I've downloaded and used aros quite a few times over the years, and I think its really getting to a very useable state. what it needs is more apps and games.
I'm going to be taking some programming in college we'll see what I can do then.
BTW for the offtopic part of this thread a republic is a form of democracy. Pure democracy doesn't work because people don't care enough to vote on everything.
also: deregulation was only part of the problem and actually regulation wouldn't have helped since part of the gov (cough*democrats) was urging banks to lend more money even if the loans were unsafe and the market overvalued.
