That scene in Silicon Valley where Hendricks gets chewed out for trying to make a profit is extremely accurate.
The current system that we have is a miscarriage of Capitalism, where the HOPE of future profits is more valuable than the skill and competence to make a profit out of the gate, the way, you know, a grocery store has to before it goes under in two months.
Basically it's a giant pyramid scheme. A bunch of VCs throwing companies around like hot potatoes until the biggest idiot ends up with an overvalued load of crap.
