Oracle leaves CA for TX
https://justthenews.com/nation...alifornia-move-texas

Software giant Oracle has moved its headquarters to Texas, government filings show, with the company becoming the latest corporation to depart California in favor of the southern state.

The company's move from Redwood City, Calif. to Austin, Texas "best position[s] Oracle for growth and provide[s] our personnel with more flexibility about where and how they work," the company said in a Securities And Exchange Commission filing on Friday.

The company said it will "continue to support major hubs for Oracle around the world, including those in the United States such as Redwood City, Austin, Santa Monica, Seattle, Denver, Orlando and Burlington," and other locations.

The first of many leaving a sinking ship. Austin is still pretty spendy but sure beats Cali.

The problem is they don't leave their party in CA. They come to Texas because their company cannot survive under CA taxes, then they start voting in the same type of people that created the situation that made them leave.

North side of Dallas and nearby counties were solid Republican areas until companies starting moving from CA to Frisco, McKinney, Allen ect. Dems are getting very close to controlling those areas now.

While I am ecstatic that a revenue stream to support the failed state of California is leaving, it’s tempered that the people leaving are taking their mindset with them - and it’s not surprising they’re going to Austin.

One would think there are a lot of other conservative locations they could have picked where the locals would have welcomed them.

They’re simply trading one socialist location for another.

But it’s good news that CA is losing yet another revenue stream

Adding to the problem, the liberals will poison their environment with their socialist views, and when their communities decay, they will ignore/deny the cause-effect connection.

Lots of states are starting to suffer from the same affliction from all of these educated idiots.
They bring their politics with them and do similar things to their new home states.

Oracle is the third major tech company to announce it's moving out of CA in the last 10-days. For what its worth, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison as usual bucked convention, and has supported and donated to DJT.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise moving its headquarters from California to Houston area

Tech CEO moves $9B cybersecurity company’s HQ to Seattle area, says S.F. is ‘not the city it was

The people moving are the entrepreneurial 'we know more than you' liberals, Biden voters. What they're leaving behind is the tax everyone, all companies are evil organization types, Bernie/Warren/AOC voters.

Don’t worry, they will also bring in work visa foreigners to pump out kids, get on benefits, citizenship, and vote for commies.

They're moving to Austin. Not exactly a conservative city. I'm sure the damage is already done.

Due to telecommuniting, only some of the Californians will move. Same thing happened with HP.

Also, there is a push (hope it gets bigger) in Texas to remind Californians that they're refugees not missionaries (i.e. don't come and try to spread their failed politics, but instead come and learn our ways). #DontCaliforniaMyTexas
