Last nights TedxBoulder with ticket prices ranging  from $22.00 to $32.00 is another one of Andrew Hydes road shows. Hyde runs Ignite Boulder and Startup Boulder which are also slick minimalist events.  This years TedxBoulder was essentially more of the same.

Hyde who moved to Boulder a few years ago as point man and recruiter for Brad Felds Tech Stars, produces sold out speaking  shows at Boulder theater, Chautauqua Auditorium and now Macky Auditorium.

Hyde has been key in feeding Felds venture capitalist  machine though he doesn’t like to admit it.  The message is always :”minimalist, anti capitalist, communist, anti-money, brains, save the world” But the people involved are rich as hell and money always seems to be flowing to them from others.

Now Children let’s everyone drink the cool Aide: It’s the same old Boulder story of anti capitalists being the best capitalists of all. In a way it’s a Joke on all of us. As long as Hyde , Feld and company don’t burn investors, we see no harm. But call it what it is boys. Oh maybe not. Then it can’t be sold to the rich anti capitalist kids who come to school here. This makes Boulder all the more fun… Watching rich liberals trying to convince themselves and everyone else that money doesn’t matter as long as you give it to them. It is also the Boulder Story. Money is evil. Things are bad. you don’t understand. And lets go to the bar and get drunk. Coffee in the morning. give me your money. lol.
