Why I Support Free Software
This is one of the big reasons I'm involved in the Free Software movement, too: in short, we're removing the `certification bottleneck' between education and self-actualisation.

If you can get past the crazy layout, these 2 pages are a nice caricature of the #certification bottleneck: http://dresdencodak.com/2011/02/23/dark-science-08/ http://dresdencodak.com/2011/04/19/dark-science-09/
