That and much more.

You keep trying to talk down on it but do Canada or Mexico have anything comparable to Silicon Valley?

I don't see a Silicon Valley in Norway nor Sweden, two of the most advanced countries in the world.

Does that tell you something?

Yeah it tells me that people in Norway and Sweden probably consume technology produced in California.

And they're happy with that because they know there is no point in having a powerful tech industry when you can't take care of your own.

I don't see the point of acting like a large chunk of California being underclass is not a big deal because of Silicon Valley

Sure, but is the entire population outside of silicon valley underclass? Or homeless? Is the state of California too poor to be compared to Canada? I know a few people that work in silicon valley but most people I know in California (mostly in socal) don't work for silicon valley and are doing fine.

Doesn't California have a ton of kids underperforming in public school?

I'd imagine Canada does to. What's your point?
