Not unlike the way Andrew Wiles labored for over seven years,
and yet mathematicians everywhere will greedily use the
Taniyama-Shimura theorem in their own proofs without paying
him one cent (or Taniyama and Shimura, for that matter).

And you're wrong, by the way. You can arrange to be compensated
for your labor in any way you like. Stallman would simply deny
you the ability to prevent others from using the product of your
labor.
