The only thing keeping most tech companies here is that they have been here and that they're a few hours closer to China by air. It's just like manufacturing in LA before it was all burned out in the Rodney King riots, except for the China part.

A lot of these companies talk a big SJW game but they want a good business climate and almost all tech CEOs have though of moving out. Same goes for Washington where Amazon and Seattle are constantly at odds.

The economy can only take so much crazy.

He always goes where he can mooch the most.

Tesla had a good thing going, it's a shame that he's such a fucking kook.

Tesla as a company is not worthy of its Serbian name.

You would think Musk would move production to Texas and keep R & D in the Bay Area. The engineering talent pool in northern California is the one of the deepest in the world, and Stanford, Cal Poly, Berkeley, SJSU, Santa Clara, UCSC, and many other universities keep the pool well stocked.

Now that working remotely is the norm you can have engineers live anywhere and it doesn’t have to be where you manufacture

Money and power corrupts.

In the mid 90s I worked for a software company that had a few hundred employees. The CEO told us that they received weekly offers from cities large and small all over America to move the company. Many of them were quite lucrative. The reasons they never moved were A) the CEO loved living here and did not want to move, and B) the company's software development staff was its single most valuable asset, and most of us would quit if the company moved. 25 years later the company is still here and has done quite well over the years.
