Only Steve knows why he wrote this post so I can only speculate.

What I speculate is that he was trying to draw attention to the issue, for people who care about entrepreneurship, without actively going and trying to change it. He makes a very important point "there is no strategy" and in fact represents why many start-ups fail today. In a way I think he is saying "This start-up organization itself doesn't follow the guidelines that it's trying to promote". It's essentially like another model for a business school MBA, which arguably isn't always the absolute path to new company creation.

The only thing I think a government can do in this situation is to continue to provide a system for failure tolerance. This is America's greatest strength.
