Talked to someone who worked at Freeport-McMoRan and thought of this question.

Companies that were headquartered here but then moved.

Shell, Texaco, many other oil companies. Ruth’s Chris. Cain’s moved a lot to Texas.

Every major company who can escape the parasitic grasps of Louisiana will leave.

Delta Airlines started in Monroe. Left in 1941. They were way ahead of the game in leaving. Huey P probably ran them off.

none of them were ever actually based in LA, they just base some production in whatever state is currently handing out subsidies
