Generally when people say Philly is the economic powerhouse of the state, it's referring to the metropolitan area, which extends beyond the county. The speakers in those links are nonsense, as the suburbs and main line are as reliant on Philly as it is on their resources and capital.

That said, OP, you seem to have a chip on your shoulder.
