> There is a lot to be said for VC in recent years not being beneficial for the economy
What a wild statement, VC's are behind most of the growth in the US economy, and they directly drive up wages in tech. I'd be fascinated to hear a valid complaint of VC's that isn't just money envy
Economic growth doesn't mean much if the benefits are concentrated in a small percentage of the population.
And while I can't disagree it has benefited tech wages historically that is just one industry. Then there are also the recent mass layoffs.
