In Denmark they got reminded of that fact when 25 000 hospitals started using LibreOffice instead of MS Office. That's some 7.7 million dollars of licences not going in their pocket. Imagine more people and countries doing the same.

useful,working, free software is always a great thing!
and, additionally.... when money was made to make trade for people easier, why are there such gigantic profit spans involved there, and only for a small fraction of people?
