it's really rich to read a blog post from someone at YC wishing "the federal government was doing much more". YC and the extended universe of VCs have spent years providing an intellectual facade to undermine confidence in a centralized government, public funding of critical services, and promoting the profit motive in places like healthcare.
The past decade in America has seen the dominance of the capitalist tech utopians like Paul Graham, and we are seeing the results. For god's sake Peter Thiel was working with YC barely two years ago and now Sam wants to complain that the federal government isn't prepared to respond to crises?? what a joke.
