Reminds me of Defender, a faster version with a 'Smart Bomb!' that was so fun to use :)

I see you're being down voted, Reddit style. But you're on the mark about the hate tone of comments. If you don't like Amplifier, don't use it. No need to spew hate.

Nope. Unfortunately he has veered to far into political slant for everything. Mostly towards the right.

In the US, the only way to generate passive wealth is through homeownership for most people. Others know how to invest and manage their portfolio actively.

Why do VCs feel the need to write crap like this is beyond me. Too much idle time?

Completely agree. Capital is used to make Kings. Companies like Uber, Lyft, WeWork - won't exist without this. As for quality of the founders, I think, with enough money (and loss appetite), a mediocre team can execute well on an decent opportunity.
