The virtue of open source methodology lies in the fact that it is fiercely entrepreneurial, but rewards utility over profitability. I think some promulgation on this formula is key for people on the left to seize the great American mantle of being in favor of hard work.

Elsewhere, hanging with some local labor heads, I heard (and found a link this morning) that a US Senator (Brownback of Kansas) likes to wash his staff's feet as a gesture of faith.

Also heard from a SEIU organizer about how a corporate hospital demanded $600 back pay from a husband before they would treat his wife for the miscarriage she was having. Oh lordy lordy.
