See, the problem is that you have it backwards. OSS's significant "problem" is those attempting to levarage it for funding. If you want funding, don't do open source; you'll make all the precious money that those who have it think it might be worth, and you won't look like a dick when you pull it back because you're not making enough. If you want to write software, in a community, for the betterment of that everyone, no matter what anyone else does with that software, then release it as open source. Can you still make a comfortable living writing open source software? Perhaps, but if that's your goal, you're doing it wrong(tm).
