On the other hand, it's nice for the people receiving those paychecks (at least while they're still receiving them).

On the other hand, many startups don't do anything usable enough that people would pay money for, and their only 'exit strategy' is to be bought by one of those large companies and then dissolved after a year or two.
at least they aren't inefficient, like governments are. Because as you can clearly see market forces always lead to optimal resource allocations.
