Some of them tried for a few years, some of them are still trying, but when the majority of people think like you, why bother? It's much easier to leave and go somewhere where you can actually make a mark.
Thats probably the case with 99% of cities. Not every city can be a dazzling cultural beacon renown throughout the world.
