Bah, I didn't mean to be insulting. I know there are lots of positive advanced businesses doing good things in CA. That's no secret to anybody, huh. I'm even a bit astonished by your reaction.
And there are unfortunately lots of stupid things over my region too, if that's any comfort to you.
The point was we should make a difference between helpful growth, namely products and services that actually help the population grow smarter and happier in a sustainable fashion, and parasitic backward businesses somehow causing harm to society.
Also, wealth has to be shared more fairly and in a smarter way. E.g., here in France, we've tried hard to correct and reduce the phenomenon of inequity/inequality caused by the wild liberalized free market (or say we've pretended to do so), but it doesn't work efficiently enough. A lot of taxpayer money is wasted in the end over here.
The Scandinavians implemented more effective policies in that matter. Their systems are widely based on publicly funded professional training programs, that's the right thing to do to keep enhancing quality of life.
