Is open source anti-capitalist?

Apparently, some in the Federal government think so. I suspect it’s mostly an issue of ignorance of what open source is. After all, as former Sun CEO Scott McNealy puts it in the article:

“If you think about it, proprietary software is the software equivalent of a planned economy led by a dictators, whereas open source is all about choice, the market economy and multiple competitive players.”

If you can save money by utilizing open source applications in your business, why wouldn’t you look into it?
