You've summed up the problem I have with OP's arguments. OSS already has a number of available licenses of varying levels of freedom that lets the creator decide how their creation should be used. This entire discussion reads like "you developers are idiots who don't realize you're being taken advantage of." Whenever someone starts their argument with the (implicit or explicit) assumption that they are smarter than everyone else, my experience tells me that there's a hidden agenda in there somewhere. In this case it seems to be as trite as "corporations bad, people good" which, not to put too fine a point on it, is bullshit.
