Absolutely not! I do, however, think it&#x27;s extremely questionable when VCs lobby for taxpayer money to fund for-profit bootcamps that they invest in to train people for the skills their companies need. It&#x27;s outsourcing the cost of training to the taxpayer, all while driving up the value of their bootcamp investments. Instead, these companies should drop their &quot;we&#x27;re a poor startup that needs people who can hit the ground running&quot;, and actually train people themselves. These &quot;startups&quot; are funded by extremely well-off VCs who could afford it. They shouldn&#x27;t ask the middle class to pay for it for them.<p>Democrats and VCs have a very tight nit relationship.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.latimes.com&#x2F;business&#x2F;technology&#x2F;la-fi-tn-obamas-100-million-plan-to-boost-hightech-training-hiring-20150309-story.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.latimes.com&#x2F;business&#x2F;technology&#x2F;la-fi-tn-obamas-1...</a><p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www1.nyc.gov&#x2F;office-of-the-mayor&#x2F;news&#x2F;114-15&#x2F;mayor-bill-de-blasio-nyc-tech-talent-pipeline-industry-partners-commitments-to" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www1.nyc.gov&#x2F;office-of-the-mayor&#x2F;news&#x2F;114-15&#x2F;mayor-bi...</a>
