Hayek and Ludwig Von Mises, who simply say that funds ought go first and foremost to innovators and entrepreneurs, and not to central-planning, risk-free, innovation-averse, uncreative bureaucrats who condescendingly see entrepreneurs and innovators as poor, helpless, timid souls who need incubation in their “benevolent” corproate-state incubators designed to transfer the technology from the timid, helpless entrepreneur for the greater good of all. All that the entreprnuer really needs is to get some of Kauffman’s funds while the MBAs get out of the way, but then where would the value of a Harvard MBA be in such a system? Kauffman wished for his funds to support entreprneurs and innovators, as Kuaffman knows that his vast fortune was not born in an incubator conceived by some innovationless MBA. Oh the irony–the MBAs greatest value is to never notice it, and to smile, smile, and smile as Tolstoy calls them out. Bo Fishback will be hanging the following quote above the entrance to his incubator/conservatory: “I sit on a man’s back, choking him, and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by any means possible, except getting off his back.” –Tolstoy Writings on Civil Disobedience and Nonviolence The General Failure of Incubators by Any Other Name (but for the insider MBAs who profit by beating a dead horse) & Bo Fishback’s “Conservatory for Schrammenomics”
