"Cities exist as job markets."

That's changing. Cities are beginning to exist as playgrounds for the privileged.

Maybe NYC or a few other coastal "cool" cities, but for the vast majority of urban areas I am familiar with this doesn't seem to be the case.
So, the ~9 Million people who live in New York don't have jobs other than catering to the privileged?
Americans have a strange idea of what cities are because the vast majority of Americans live in suburbs, or cities that are basically suburbs, or cities that have been modified to cater to suburbs.
