I think it's a sign of the different way of thinking about problems between SV types and "regular" people. SV: this investment will revolutionize technology, and will give us an amazing ROI over the next 50 years. This could pave the road to whatever comes after the cell phone and change our entire world! Regular people, in the meantime, are scrapping by to gather enough to feed their children, drowning in debt, and/or working in terrible jobs (sorry, "gigs") to make those same billionaires richer. "Whatever the next iPhone in 50 years will be, maybe" is not really high on their priorities.
