most billionaires behave just like users on social media: they want to be on top, collect the most karma, etc. They arn't leaving a platform as large as California because that means diminishing their power and influence and attention.
Threats to leave for Texas don't survive the realization that then you'd have to live in Texas.
endless greed is remarkable. guys with $200B can't afford to pay taxes to the state that allowed them to gain such excessive wealth in the first place, often via government subsidy. this cancerous version of capitalism can't end quickly enough.

They can leave. And they did.
shows you also how “smart” they are to “live” in Cali in the first place. you got billions, park yourself wherever the F you don’t have to pay jacksh t for being a billionaire prick and get yourselves on of them houses in Cali to actually live instead of whatever sh thole houses billionaires for free
That is pretty sad. People would rather spend money on political activism instead of supporting their home state. Imagine if they said instead - no need for tax, here is 15 billion to fund the schools. They could be heroes but choose to be assholes.

Taxes on the highest income bracket during Dwight D. Eisenhower's presidency where 90%.
90%.
Ya know, during the 1950s. The so called "Golden Years" of the USA. Fiercely anti-communist, Cold War going on.
And here we were taxing the richest at 90%.
That's how I know your comment is in bad faith.
