This is the second article in a two-part series. Click here to read part one.

Last month, Benzinga shared a comprehensive look at the response to Marc Andreessen's Twitter commentary on startup valuations.

His tweets were in response to an article in The Wall Street Journal where venture capitalist Bill Gurley said that Silicon Valley is taking on too much risk when investing in startups.

12/Therefore you take on escalating risk of a catastrophic down round. High-cash-burn startups almost never survive down rounds. VAPORIZE.

— Marc Andreessen (@pmarca) September 25, 2014

In order to more fully grasp the breadth of this issue, Benzinga reached out to 20 entrepreneurs and others affiliated with the startup space asking one simple question: Are we in a startup bubble?

The responses were overwhelming and eye-opening. Benzinga received answers from the likes of Venture For America Founder and CEO Andrew Yang, RocketHub Co-Founder Brian Meece and Detroit Venture Partners' Ted Serbinski.

Last month's piece highlighted specific responses in a long-form article.The purpose of this piece is to provide a more in-depth look at who responded and what exactly those responses were, presented via infographic:
