He's not making the argument that money is worthless. He's making the argument that funding doesn't imply technical excellence. Perhaps as a corollary: technical excellence doesn't even imply funding or any other form of financial success (but it sure helps).

Well, develop a program for Linux, and then for Windows. The Windows one will net you more. I'm a Linux dev as well, but I know how things are, I'm not a narrow minded dipshit.
You've taken my argument (money!=quality), and decided to counter it with 'you can make more money developing a windows app than a linux app'. Perhaps you should go into politics... Or go back and re-read the thread... perhaps you'll see how badly and incoherently you come across.
