PROFESSIONAL SHOPPER SALE from venture capital funds. At the end of that decade, these companies had a capital value of more than $6 billion, employed 30,000 people and paid corporate taxes of more than $350 million. But even if the bill passes, it won't be free of red tape. To operate a fund, a license will be granted by a council con- sisting of representatives from the Finance Ministry, the Tax Commissioner, the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, the Office of the Chief Scientist in the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and the Association of High Technology companies. Not everyone is so keen on the proposal claiming what is actually being purported is to "regulate" a venture capital industry, a contradiction in terms, and to create a virtual- ly risk-free investment en- vironment, another con- tradiction in terms. By guaranteeing up to 80 per- cent of the losses of the funds the government would be distorting the market mechanism which rewards success and punishes failure. 111 With sale prices this great, even amateurs can save big. • Brass Halogen Torchiere. *REG. $220.
