I would love to see some kind of streamlined startup system. You apply, pay a nominal fee, if accepted--you're then set up with a corporation, standard offering documents, digital captable, vested founders agreements. The government offers HC for companies with less than $1.5m funding and lifts all of the legal overhead associated with employment/compliance issues--at least for a short period of time. Starting a startup is hard, you give up a lot of your life, opportunity cost, take on a lot of risk, mess with your health, and then you have to deal with all of the legal and admin costs--it's a tax on innovation.
