San Francisco tech nerds: Poor people are "trash" and need to "stay out"

[pbrower2a]

Many things from music to books and art can be made 'virtual'. Housing, furniture, fuel, clothing, plumbing, and food cannot be made 'virtual'. It may be possible to have a bay window in an apartment in Kansas City having a virtual view of San Francisco Bay (or for that matter the rings of Saturn) -- but there is no making a 'virtual' loaf of bread.
 
The 'old economy' still has its necessity, and the virtual economy can be devalued with any new obsolescence. Tech nerds take note: you can't eat terabytes of information.  The world still needs loggers and ranch hands.

In about forty years the world will have many "Baby Doe" types, deluded into believing that their former wealth from high technology of their best days, is no longer relevant -- and the money that they got from it is no more. Some will be cold and hungry.
