And it isn't governments chasing businesses out of town, it's the unpleasant side of capitalism at work pleasing the shareholders at their own employee's expense. Regulations and taxes are a part of life as are worker's rights, making profits and running a successful business. These things aren't mutually exclusive.

I’d say they are getting a good deal moving to a red state.
Seems to be a pattern recently 🤔
