They seem to be moving to the Midwest lately anyway. To states where they can fuck over the environment with their data centers. But if they think they will move the entire business, including employees, there, I’m not so sure that will work out. The local yokels are fucked from decades of poor education, so they don’t have the tech skills. They will have a hard time importing brown people on H1B visas, because everyone in these states is racist as fuck (which is also why they moved there to begin with.) So that leaves US citizens with those skill sets, but they mostly live in blue areas and are not going to want to move to these places that won’t align with their lifestyle. So they’ll still have to have remote employees, or they think they can get rid of most of their employees and replace them all with their AI jizz fest. Which will be funny when it fails.
Oh no, but the billionaires might leave the state! That would be a shame, not to have them assfucking our politicians. A damn shame.
Every state where, “the money goblins will leave if X!!!” is threatened, that state ends up having more millionaire/billionaires after X happens.
And when they “leave” they don’t leave, they buy another vacation home, their business interests stay put.
And of course, wherever they are, they aren’t paying taxes. And you are paying their energy /water bills.
You know it. And I do.
They would still assfuck your politicians. Elon Musk spent $90 million on a judge race in Wisconsin.
