I've read it. Nothing prescribes a foss philosophy outside of Linux itself. Or for that matter a dickhead attitude to those who don't subscribe to one.

Linux doesnt stand for anything. Something being foss just means it's accessible.

Who on the house floor actually occupies this position. It's only rhetoric used in debate netween regular people.

This doesn't stop anything though again. Unless you tax them out of business, they will still be a monopoly and will fix prices for their profit. Less profit is still profit.

If you tax them too high they will either seek recourse via illegally bribing politicians (or "lobbying") to have those taxes removed, or monopolise with legally distinct businesses where wealth is concentrated in the few regardless.

It's a fantasy though. An extremely competitive market would be nice, but in reality it would be a race to the bottom and those who started with more cash would win out, buy up or starve the competition and monopolise, giving them the extra space to be lazy and pass on profits to their shareholders, who dictate increased prices to increase their margins.
