- jmspring 13y agoLook at BART salaries, compare them with SV engineer salaries. There is some validity to the comparison of playing one working class against another. Not everyone in Silicon Valley taking the buses is making bank, just like not everyone protesting is making minimum wage. Part of this is protesting gentrification, part of it is frustration with a company in regard to ones situation. A broader, non tech blog dialog is likely more beneficial than pando vs valley wag.
