Well seems like people are leaving SV because the rent it too high. And I think that "Why bother making money here, when it will only make my landlord richer" is the driving attitude for people to leave.

The rents are high here compared to most places in the world, but the opportunity is greater here (if you are starting a company or joining an early stage one).

What I have tried to convey is that for those people the times aren't as bad as they think they are and that they should stick it through.

If you aren't taking advantage of that unique eco-system leaving is fine move. The people I have chatted to before I wrote the piece were people who were/should be taking advantage of that eco-system.
