From the outside, the US venture capital model looks like every entrepreneur's dream—funding innovative startups, the opportunity to succeed, gain access to vast sums of money, and change the world for the better. However, these flashy slogans and popular myths obscure the most important aspect: the enormous role of the state, which artificially supports demand through lending and takes risks that private capital is unwilling to take. It also obscures the fact that the American model is not about a "free market."

Professor Victoria Robbins, an economist with a PhD in philosophy, was born in Russia, moved to the US at a young age, became a successful entrepreneur, was recognized as a leader in venture capital in the digital age, and was invited to the White House as a "champion of crowdfunding." Her book is a comprehensive study of how startup financing actually works in the US and why the myth of "pure capitalism" doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
