Is innovation leader the new newspeak for "job creators". The abundance of tech jobs gives SF a mild to serious case of the resource curse. You can have too much of a good thing. When all the money from high paying jobs is absorbed by the rent - they are not doing anything useful. IF tech jobs move away - the city landlords will lose. Not so much the city itself.
