Taxes screw over both the companies and the states they’re in.
Taxes didn’t build those big companies. They show up after the success. They sure as hell didn’t create Silicon Valley.
The sky-high taxes came later, once it was already killing it.
California basically turned its successful companies into hosts and started parasitically draining them for more and more cash, jacking up the rates year after year.
They forget the first rule of parasitism: don’t kill the host.
Companies only have so much tolerance before they say screw it and bail for another state with better deals and resources.
And that breaking point is a lot lower these days.

@AGCypher@Booksey Dubai provides opportunities for people all the way from Asia, Middle East, and Africa that can never be found in their own country's. It enables them to deliver a better future for themselves and their families - It's the dream for many.
@JJBaybee@HustleBitch_ utter rubbish "man" - During a relentless bombardment , Dubai had just 3 casualties, minimal damage , traffic on the roads, utilities, internet, transport, hospitals, all fully operational - thats the definition of safe.
@wizardofsoho Im literally in the process of buying a property (Max I could get as an uncertainty discount was 1% off the asking price). Nobody in Dubai is panicking - only the ones that envy it are.

@AbudhalifM@legdaydaddyy@MattWallace888 When did Burj Khalifa become a damn military base. Last time I checked , Fairmont was still a damn hotel. What you're saying is nonsense - These are desperate measure from a desperate regime spreading terror across civilian areas.
@elonmusk Social media , especially the kind that is bases on posting photos and videos, waiting for likes and comments, is a diesease - overral much more harm than good to society
