And I am quite sure what real reason of this is similarity of Open Source as idea and socialism as idea - it goes from same basic point of common property, so produces virtual Stalin just as is.
One hardly knows where to start, there's no much wrong here...
OpenSource or GPL is not public domain - which would be 'common property'. My FG work is
my intellectual property, no one else's, it just gets licensed for you to use in a certain way. For a number of reasons, not the least the freedom granted by the license, OpenSource also seems to be more successful than socialism as an idea, because it makes it easy to transit from a non-working solution to a working on - if you find a bit of software which doesn't do what you want, you look at the code and fix is as you need it.
Second, there is
no similarity between the lack of a FG moon program and the Soviet moon program. The first never existed - it's the equivalent of the Soviet Union saying - oh, let the Americans fly, we don't really want to.
A real Soviet Moon program existed, and plenty of its components were in actual fact developed - alas, the N1 rocket never made it into space, all attempts were lost - and without a carrier, of course the program was doomed.
Now, we can only speculate why the N1 failed - from the information I can access, it seems the program was rushed, underfunded and in fact concepts from different designers were shotgun-married - which is prone to create issues.
Nothing of this actually can happen in the FG environment - since there's no funding, development of anything can't be underfunded, since there's no deadlines there's no rush, and since there's no central authority telling people what to work on, there's no shotgun marriage of different designs - people as a rule work on what they like and see important and as a result are motivated.
Which in fact is your problem in a nutshell - there's no central authority committing FG to a Moon program - and so people just don't do it. Which, again, is very different from how the Soviet Moon program worked, because there were multiple design bureaus committed to Moon flights, they just could not agree upon a common design, hence the shotgun marriage.
It's not that Glushko wasn't interested in Moon flights - he just had a very different Moon rocket in mind and didn't want to work for Korolev's rocket.
So of course when you ignore basically all the quirks of history and compare a never-planned with a not functional Moon program AND cling to the idea that people working on a FG Space Shuttle
somehow took resources away that 'rightfully' should have 'belonged' to your Moon project AND throw away the meaning of 'common property' - then you can come up with your weird parallels.
But that takes a lot of fact doctoring.
Well - end of history and politics lesson
