It's unfortunate that Elon is leaving California given that the state has really lifted him to the pedestal he is on - through the talent network (highly talented employees, VCs), and the progressive policies that CA built for clean technology (Solar, EVs, Energy Storage). That was paid for on the backs of the people. Funny how short his memory is.
Elon is a talented man - I absolutely respect what he's done. However - let's call this what it is - he doesn't want to pay a large tax bill for the success that he has had (hence selling all property in CA). I get it - it sucks and you can also be much more anti-union in Texas.
Too bad he had to go along with the narrative “I think we’ll see some reduction in the influence of Silicon Valley” -- feels like a slap in the face to the market that lifted Tesla off the ground.
