I understand that people get pissed off when some Californians move to red states and start voting democrat and listening to the hip-hop, but California as a whole makes the biggest contributions to keeping America on the bleeding edge of entertainment, media, and technological progress.
Would you want to kick New York or Texas out of the US if they had cultures you personally didn't like?
>>5557263Where else would they go? Other parts of the country have strong high tech sectors like Florida or New York but none of them can compare to the overwhelming demand for tech jobs industry in California. Those companies are based in Silicon Valley in the first place because it's been THE promised land for CompScifags for decades. If anything, not having to pay any federal taxes would be a pull factor for most businesses.
>Not like we need (((tech))) and (((social media industries))) anyway.I really hope you're just pretending to be this retarded. Practically every big advancement in computing and information technology since the 1950's came out of what is now Silicon Valley. The silicon transistor? The microprocessor? Fucking ARPANET, which laid the groundwork for the worldwide web of subnetworks you've been using to shitpost? All from the Bay Area.
Of course social media is fucking terrible, but gathering and selling data for things like targeted advertisement is quickly becoming the most widespread and lucrative business in the modern world.
