Even if she did, she'd laugh and probably agree!

1. Should this list be zero based? Well on the one hand it is a technology site but on the other hand it is mainly for a human audience.
10. Wait - doesn't that preclude doing a "10 types of people in the world, those that understand binary.." derivative joke? On the plus side, if it doesn't then my list is complete.
11. Not specifying if the list is zero based or not makes an "off by one" error more likely.

Do you thought why these virgins are still virgins...

That is the correct answer.
Every time I hear of the whole idea, I imagine 72 people that are something of a cross between Richard Stallman and Garth (of Wayne's world) all clutching their Unix programming manuals.

9 Billion? not sure why this is shocking to me, but it is shocking to me.
"S. 2340 would amend federal laws related to managing the federal government’s licenses for information technology software. The bill would require the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to issue a directive to each federal agency to develop a comprehensive policy for software licensing including a complete inventory of software licenses and to develop a mechanism to track, maintain, and analyze software use.
Most of the provisions of the bill would codify and expand current policies and practices of the federal government. OMB has reported that agencies spent about $9 billion in 2015 on software licenses. The Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform Act (FITARA) recently directed agencies to acquire and manage software in a more coordinated way. In addition, the Enterprise Software Category Team, managed by the General Services Administration, the Department of Defense, and OMB, is developing government-wide agreements for obtaining software licenses. Because such efforts to better manage software licenses are already underway, CBO estimates that the bill would not substantially change those efforts, and that implementing S. 2340 would have no significant net impact on the federal budget over the next five years. The bill could affect direct spending by agencies not funded through annual appropriations; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. CBO estimates, however, that any net change in spending by those agencies would not be significant. Enacting S. 2340 would not affect revenues."

I think of it this way - that's $9 billion that is going into the economy from tax payers.
So taxpayers are supporting the creation of more jobs in the software industry as well as all the other associated businesses(all the sandwich shops, nurseries, garages, gyms etc. that are in the vicinity of where the software company people work).
This is all assuming that the software companies are US based.

Right. I was also just thinking that 9 Billion divided by the price of Windows 10 Pro (unofficial government rate $150) is 60,000,000 copies of Windows or (unofficial government rate for Office 2016 $160) is 56,250,000 copies of Office 2016.
[edit: oops I used 9 Million instead of 9 Billion so I fixed above to stop the replies , oh the replies  ]

FTFY
You calculated for 9 million not billion (which in the US is the same as Milliard[^] to some others)
