The economy of the San Francisco Bay Area has grown at an annual rate of 4.3% over the last 3 years, which is nearly double that of the rest of the USA. With a "GDP" of $748B, the Bay Area would be the 18th largest economy in the world if it were a country; between the Netherlands and Switzerland. Overall employment grew by 26%, largely driven by tech jobs.

    Tsk tsk. The burden of acting like an over-opinionated know-it-all douche.

    If you're going to claim you've debunked something, you need to present evidence that you're right and whatever you're debunking is wrong. So far in this discussion, you've provided no evidence whatsoever, only unsubstantiated (and frequently demonstrably untrue) statements. Ergo, you've debunked nothing.

    Lazy bastard, you almost never provide citations of any sort, just hot air.

    Plus seems only fair how frequently you repeat points that people have soundly refuted.
