Idea:

As I am writing this, I am fairly upset with Canonical and Red Hat as they have sold out to Microsoft. Therefore, I may upset some Mint users; however, if we are going to be true to the concept of Open Source and GNU + Linux, we have to consider this in my view. I have been using LMDE for about six months and I think it is faster than the standard Linux Mint. Granted Debian has its problems from a basic user stand point (like issues with Wine); however, it is in many ways better and Debian has not sold out the GNU + Linux community.

You might want to substantiate your findings with Canonical and Red hat before posting. Besides this is not an Idea rather an opinion.
