Speaking for myself, I want my code to be usable by everyone, including corporations, for free, with no limits. I even like to drop the attribution clause that things like MIT have.

Copyleft licenses like the GPL don't place any limits or price on using the software, only on distribution - and the limits there are pretty reasonable and merely ensure the software stays usable for others with the same lack of limits in the future.
