The government should fund startups, via money printing. Instead of say pay people to stay unemployed.

In Poland, the government does fund startups. It tends to draw all kinds of scam artists which will take the gov money and create some kind of hopeless facebook-for-dogs website just to satisfy formal requirements. The funding system is designed to weed out such individuals, but obviously they are highly motivated (free money!) so many of them manage to game it anyway.
