I always find these sort of "we'll pick up our ball and change homes" threats by non-monopoly capital interesting.

It's almost a real thread from say GM, ignoring the billions of physical plant infrastructure that would be relocated.

But in industries where there is enough competition and a large talent pool, being the regional defector makes you the odd duck out in the war for talent. Similar to the quiet walk back of a lot of the Tech/Finance "we are moving to Miami" bros, I don't think you're going to get a lot of entertainers doing projects down in Texas.

I guess this is why Big Capital wants to replace us all with AI so they can re-dom to Puerto Rico with servers in Elons orbital datacenter.
