oh yeah, it's all the fault of the greedy investors vs. the virtuous
founders, who now have 4 Porsches apiece and $10 million dollar houses
in Los Altos.

my misunderstanding may be flawed (my bushism of the the day), but -
if you go public, you are legally saying that money is the only thing
that matters. if you don't behave in this way, you can be sued for
violating your fiduciary responsibility. it's not an ideal system, but
the people who cashed in have little right to pretend to virtue beyond
that they earn by being good stewards of the bucks. there can be much
disagreement over which path will lead there, of course.
