Or put another way, the people who create something worth $300B out of nothing get to decide what happens to their share of the $300B. And as a bonus, these are people with demonstrated success in their ventures, and they are given free reign to pursue their vision fully. Whereas the public sector is a mess of a dysfunctional congress, infighting, posturing, pork, global warming deniers, and discourse targeted to short attention spans and the 24 hour news cycle.

There is something very troubling about the idea that the more successful/valuable your creation becomes, the less entitled you are to invest the fruit of your success into your next idea.
