White House Maker Fair & Indiegogo

If indiegogo keeps this up, it will be Indiegone gone.

Co-branding with the White House means submitting to the "get big or get out" regime that is the foundation of all federal policies.

The "prizes" on offer are all risible, and anyone serious about start-up should focus on start-up and skip the circus entertainment.

What we need is less diversion, bread and circuses, and more customer contact.  Less management of free association, and more freedom to contract.

While these people party on in Rome, Wall Street if inflating it's own bubble with stock buybacks.  But isn't stock buyback proof a company is doing well?  No.  It is proof top management has lost confidence and is looting the corporation before the crash.

Here is a stock buyback poster child.  Look at your household budget right now.  Look at 2 years on unemployment insurance, and no possibility of finding another job.  And then household budget on welfare.

Better to start a business, and be in control, than on welfare.

Feel free to forward this by email to three of your friends.
