It does not exclude. But the expectation of larger money has to go. They're literally competing with 100 dollars a month.

That is more a sign of our messed up society. Yes, techies earn middle class salaries that are hard for everyone else to earn, but the issue was everyone else falling behind, not techies racing ahead (our salaries are extravagant becuase…we can buy a house like our very normal salary parents could).

I agree it definitely distorts the market because what else are kids to do?
