Hi,
Don't you have in US some commerce rules ? The question wasn't about the the right to publish a text which is domain public.
The question is
The right to resell the free work done as a free work by someone by a human. Imagine in the real world. Someone has a business, in the usa, can you work for free for your boss ? By this way, do you think than you boss can take all the market, because his product are cheaper.
Do you think that a company which give a salary can stay in competition with an other one which resell work done for free.
I know than Gutemberg project say than the content can be used for business, but if gutemberg project say, you can kill your mother... Can you say it legal because Gutemberg, say me. I've this public domaine right.

In one word domain public has some rules but domain public is just on law.
