For those not subscribed to the WSJ, you can read the whole article by clicking through a google search.[1]

As for the article itself, the numbers do seem quite troubling for companies looking for VC money. On the other hand, from the trends I'm seeing in the web community, more and more entrepreneurs are bootstrapping their companies.

I wonder which side the causation lies on.

Whichever side causation lies on, the VC as a whole will lose more (have less to gain) than the entrepreneur as a whole.
