First the European fund and now this.

The last thing I want is for my taxes is to go into venture capital. Especially if it's run by the government.

I wonder what's the best place where to run to, to escape this trend. Maybe South America or South East Asia?

South East Asia is big on government-led venture capital and state-run business incubators/accelerators and other kinds of business development activities. Even the communist countries.

There is no escape.

The only way out of this is to build better ways to keep the powerful accountable.
