High Tech

For me, this was Southern California in the Eighties. We were just getting used to the Computer. and didn't know how important it was yet, so we called it High Tech. 

I worked my way down the coast, from Ventura County, LA County, Orange County, and then San Diego.

This new industry was unethical and consisted of hundreds of groups stealing were from each other. It took thirty years before there were only four companies left (Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft). 

This was happening in Silicon Valley, in the Nineties. 

To succeed in this latest industry, you had to contribute something important (that made lots of money). 

For most people, looking on at all this craziness, it was too hard to understand, so they didn't try. Anything technical just became Tech, something they could safely ignore (they thought). 

Making the move to this latest Industrial Revolution was too difficult for them, and they got left behind. Most people have been left behind, and this is the most serious situation that can be imagined.
