Well given the ever increasing crime, taxes, costs and lowering of living standards hopefully we will start either seeing companies leave SV, or SV ceasing having any competitive advantage as companies realize their talent pool is not infact limited to SV and there are plenty of high talented people that have no interest in living in SV

If you want to criticize SV you should avoid complaining about "high taxes" since it reveals you don't actually know anything.

The people who live here and complain about that are talking their book, they universally pay like $3000/year property tax on $3 million mansions and don't want Prop13 repealed.
