Some thoughts:

1) Lower taxes on software companies, and make it easier to fire people 2) Lower capital gains taxes to let big wins offset losses for VCs 3) Less government involvement in companies. It was mentioned recently how governments giving hundreds of millions to companies will not replace google.


Yeah that hundred million idea sounded pretty amazing to me, hooray another scientific project funded to do a dozen year project..
