Nothing against Austin which is lovely, but people have predicting that it was going to replace San Francisco for *at least* three decades and… yeah, still hasn’t happened.

I could do with a lot less finance douchebags running around in NYC, and tech asshats in SF, as they’re two of my favorite cities.

If we tax them properly, they won’t be able to afford the move.

Billionaires have become an existential threat to freedom. Tax them or face worse consequences.

There’s a reason that the ultra wealthy don’t live in the same country as their bank accounts. There’s likely several things to love about the Cayman islands, but something tells me that it’s more hospitable to dollars than it is to the folks who own them.

That isn’t going to happen. Miami isn’t replancing NYC in anything anytime soon, and people have been trying to turn Austin into a “New SF” for over 30 years now and it still hasnt happened.
I highly doubt that all those Wall Street firms are going to undergo the massive expense of moving all their operations out of NYC into Miami considering what might happen with Miami in the next 30 years thnaks to climate change.

Leave. Let’s see what happens. I doubt that it is worse than what politicians are doing now.

If they don’t pay taxes, why would it matter if they leave?

If a good pick pocket had a prime location at Grand Central Station, why would he ever leave?
