But these people are smart; they must know that the U.S. will look more like Brazil than Norway in the next decades. How can they sleep at night? Part of my thinks there's a cynical dystopic nervousness in the back of their minds: get in, get profit fast, and get out. This very sentiment I see in startup world in tech, personally observing the effect of VC money and board pressure on startups in my last two gigs. There's just something short-term-minded about investors and politicians these days. The days of FDR-minded folks seems long-gone.
