I'm not right of center and I don't want smaller government. The fact that employees of corporations will provide the government with recommendations that are favorable for those corporations is exactly why I think the government needs a technology office to advocate on its own behalf.



As someone that works for a living for a YC company. I want my company to advocate for itself

When considering additional regulations, the weight of biased political workers should have zero weight. Advocacy is most often a defensive action against business killing overreach.
