Chuck, you totally misunderstood. I was saying if he wanted to campaign for
something free for those who have little money, he should campaign for
something people need like food and medical care, not a luxury like
software. You should pay for luxuries if you can afford them and do without
if you can't but food and medical care is different. Denying those to the
poor is wrong because human life is more important than money, and people
die without food and if they're sick they die without medical care. No one
dies for lack of Photoshop. I'm a professional artist and graphic designer.
I have never made a lot of money but I did pay for my software because I
feel its wrong to steal something like that, especially when I am using it
to profit.
