No that is completely untrue. It is clear to me from reading this passage that Stallman is talking about modifications to code already GPLed.
Not true. Stallman specifically asks programmers to put the code in for the EXPRESS PURPOSE of forcing it to be given away.
Again, it would be a good idea for you to READ Stallman's essays (particularly the older versions, since some of the more recent ones have been toned down by his PR people even though his goals remain the same) before commenting.
