I mean, it's a flawed system to begin with.

When someone is incapable of building stuff or running a company, we (as a society, collectively) hand them shittons of money to be a VC.

I don't think the investments of what, the 0.1% wealthiest of society is the same as "society collectively" doing anything!

It is society collectively, by allowing those .1% of people have enough money to be able to fund such things on a whim.

[lreeves]

Allowing is doing a lot of work in this sentence when in North America pretty much all political parties I can vote for (that have a chance of winning) support the status quo in power.

Very true. That too is a feature of our society.
