    I've been tech-adjacent long enough to find this extremely unsurprising.

    It's dangerous, too. According to no less an authority than Herbert Hoover (and economist Galbraith among others) a primary cause of the Great Depression was severe unequal distribution of wealth.

    It can also be a source of serious social unrest leading to violent revolution though I think we are a long way from that.

    Not suprised about San Jose and a handful of the other cities, the amount of wealth they have is just staggering. Just surprised and alarmed at the number of other cities with such dangerous concentrations of wealth.
