Just thought I'd point this article out to you - it is in parts a fantastic explanation of why FLOSS should be used throughout the world. Ignore the source:

The majority of the article is great but it starts to head towards socialist propaganda in the final section, "Socialism and Free Software".
I've never seen an article put it all together as well as this on does before.
