I'm not saying that's a problem, but it certainly makes the requirement easier to satisfy. A full time minimum wage job including taxes is just about $20k a year.
while it's possible, it's not very likely.
we did not draft legislation to cover all possible edge cases, but rather to reasonably address common scenarios.
obviously we've let you into HN comments, & you're doing the equivalent of not wearing any intellectual pants... ;)

why are you quoting "sponsor"? why use "clique"? you're just trying to use specific questionable punctuation to indict a broad group of people w/o any real analysis of why their motives or ethics are in question.
job creation is likely to be a good thing. if you have specific solutions / suggestions on better ways to measure job creation effectiveness, please state them.
again, happy to argue about these topics rather than you simply ripping on the general proposal. at least we can get to constructive criticism, rather than whether you or anyone else aren't wearing pants.
Please stop taking this so personally. I'm not. How could I? I have no idea who you are.
that said, when you cast disparaging comments on the entire class of VCs not treating entrepreneurs well, it's hard not to take it a little personal (altho i've been on both sides).
when you're stereotyping, it does hit home a little harder.
