> While open source is great, its a terrible business model.

I don't think that RMS cares about business models: he argues that proprietary software is unethical, not that it's bad business.

One could probably make a decent sum of money as a hit man, but it would be unethical.

Open source advocates argue pragmatically that open source software can be better (many eyes make all bugs shallow) or that it can be a competitive advantage to comnmoditise one's complements; free software advocates don't necessarily disagree, but don't particular care: they believe that proprietary software is fundamentally wrong.

You may dislike it, but do you disagree? Can you refute the plethora of ethical arguments RMS has been making over the last several decades?
