I think she has a point about bubble that Silicon Valley and SF lives in.
Where I think she misses the boat is that the solution isn't to lobby government. Rather people need to remember the world outside the bubble so they can see real problems to work on, rather than the latest cool X-sharing (yes it's a cliche but still true) app to brag about in front of their friends in the coffee shop.
Many of the real ground breaking startups are not coming from the bay area nowadays for exactly these reasons.
