I wish public rhetoric was less combative/twitter-like and more collaborative.

Elon has built incredible companies doing incredible things. He's also made some stupid comments re: covid.

SV political hostility towards technology companies and employees is frustrating. I wish the government was more aligned with helping these companies grow and things weren't treated as if they were so zero-sum (when they're not). I also wish the taxes weren't so extreme (including state capital gains tax).

I wish there was more housing supply so cost of living wasn't so high and the focus was on increasing supply rather than band-aids that provide short-term relief, but make things worse long-term (rent control, price controlled units).

The "Fuck Elon Musk" tweet from a politician is dumb and makes this kind of thing worse, why can't people in government behave better than this?

If we could coordinate better we could do so much more. It's just frustrating to me.
