This is beyond being ridiculous…..I am beginning to hate the Bay Area

This is simply the logical consequence when you have way too many people concentrated in one area. Kind of reminds me of an experiment with rants I read about. There comes a point where, due to high concentration, they cannibalized each other. Same with humans. This did not happen when the Bay Area had fewer people, say 1950’s and 1960’s.
