To the startup founders among us, we know that you are strong. You are capable. You are a visionary, a leader and trailblazer. And we know that above all, you are morally dubious. Here at Y Combinator, we have the perfect fit that will slide right into you — or provide a perfect fit for your goals. So whether you’re looking to profit off child labor or deprive even more minorities of their rights, we have the perfect name for you!
