My children and I are feed, clothed, and housed by free software.

1) I recommend you attend any web development conference (South by SouthWest for instance). Internet Explorer has always been poorly implemented, buggy, and standards non-compliant. It is not designed for operating system agnosticism.
2) I would say that projects such as Ubuntu and Fedora disprove your slow design theory. In the past years these GNU/Linux operating system have changed much more quickly than cathedral model software projects.

Free and Open source software isn't about free as in beer. It is about free as in freedom.
Free software is sold, and also services are sold, today. (See Redhat) In other words, you get paid.
Companies like Microsoft would have us believe that the ethereal bits that make up the algorithms of their software is a "product".
Free software developers use their energy to create value in knowledge. It is very possible to make a living in the transmission of knowledge from one person to another.

The union itself isn't the problem. The problem is that it's being driven by greedy corporations. We need an overhaul of IP law, a rejection of the idea of draconian DRM, a more educated population which would choose 'free' software alternatives.
Granted that's not going to happen but slowing down trade globalization (since there is no way to stop it completely) won't help much in and of itself.
