You said it twice, otherwise I wouldn't note it: the phrase is "losing touch," not "loosing touch."
To say something directly though, I think that wealth creation is a distinct from money. Even if you yourself can get many of those perks with a higher-paying job, the total wealth in the world is less than if that company gave you those things outright, since a variety of economies of scale would kick in.
And maybe Google's society is overly insular. That said, I don't really want the forced walled garden of Apple or the short-sighted pragmatism of Microsoft to infect Google.
(That said, Google isn't perfect, and they do have a variety of areas where they seem to be falling victim at least to the forced walled garden stuff.)
