If you are creating a product or service people actually want to buy or use, you won’t need to kiss a politicians ass.[/quote]

All the big SV firms have representatives in greater DC, to kiss pols asses. [/quote]

Not to the same extent as the beltway bandits.  [/quote]

The beltway bandits are serving the SV firms (and other firms around the country)

The point is that if kissing Pols asses means  you don't have a product of service people want to use, then no one has such  product or service.[/quote]

The bigger point is that most products or services sold by companies in DC would not be bought by anyone other than the government, so that is why you need to kiss their ass.

To give you an example - the Obamacare website cost $1.7B to build, and it's crap.  You wouldn't be able to get away with this shit if you're a normal company.  [/quote]

While SV firms kiss ass to be able to trade personal data, or to have monopolies, or to get employees on H1B visas, or whatever.  The point is they are still kissing ass.   [/quote]

The very simple idea of extent is lost on you as is the idea that lots of companies (not facebook or google) can create products or services that have wide commercial appeal.  This explains why you are stuck in a swamp.[/quote]
