I can't speak for the rest of HN, but in my case I want no subsidies from the Government. What I want the goverment to do is get out of the way so I can get on with creating wealth for me, my family and any employees I hire. Having small companies grow into big ones is a net win for the government.

'subsidize your likely-to-fail startup with their own health' Not sure how to respond to that statement, but all paid employees are offered to exchange their time and effort for cash compensation. It's up to those individuals if the exchange is worth it or not. If there is a chance of a detriment to their health, then they'd need to factor this in.

I think you'll find that your downvotes are because you disagree with the majority of readers of this site, not because of tone or sarcasm.
