&gt;&gt;&gt; Tech is only a small part, and fixing it for one small sector isn&#x27;t going to do much on a macro scale.<p>Very convenient.  Not attempting to fix a problem until everyone else is onboard is a great way of not doing anything.  If tech companies want to retain talent, pay for it.  Don&#x27;t lambaste the city or the economy.  There is nothing more hypocritical than a CEO of a profitable company complaining about retention.  If you are profitable then you can afford to pay your people more.  Complain about the city when you cannot find the people needed to make ends meet, not when they are inconveniently expensive.
