>We are paid a lot... even though we should have crazy bargaining power...

While you are likely correct, what pembrook says is mostly true. The tech scene is often used by economists and the like as a cudgel against any talk that U.S. wages and the general economy are lackluster. (To be clear, I am basing this on actual discussions I have had, not theory and/or scholarly papers.)
