Being in the US (or Silicon Valley) is no longer the huge advantage it once was. Entrepreneurs all over the world are on top of the latest technologies, companies, and business models. They see where all of this is going as clearly as we do in the states. They face challenges for sure like capital availability, awareness, marketing, travel distances, etc that entrepreneurs in the US don’t face as much.

This country is far too divided for its own good. Politics is not a zero-sum game where if one candidate wins, everyone else on the other side loses. That’s how the game is played but it is far from the reality of everyday life. In fact, we are all shades of grey between the bedrocks of party politics in one way or another and that is why I am conservative, yet fiercely independent. On both sides, there are good ideas and bad ideas and if voters can objectively step back from party brinksmanship, I think we can all find good qualities and stances on each side.

With all due respect, I think that the time has come in this country (assuming you’re in the USA) where we aren’t “willing to hear everyone’s input.” Present company excepted, of course, but there are simply far too many people in “the God camp” who are unable or unwilling to use the mental faculty for reason with which evolution has endowed them.
