I literally accidentally read your lines as:
"""
Use taxes to pay the authors...
then make it free for the public...
This is even better under Stalin's model:
"""
It took me about 5 to 7 seconds of rereading before I finally saw "Stallman's model".
So I have to grant to you, you are probably right, if and only if you can find a perfectly fair and just agent to do the taxing and not become corrupt. Have any volunteers?
