simple question. . . if we (programmers) had 11 or more shots at making a secure operating system and never once got it right would we still have a job or product to sell?

if MS can't make a secure os then why would anyone even think about using windows firewall???? and what good is a firewall that does NOT block outbound traffic, only inbound???? think the logic then go find another way to secure your networks and systems.
