Cali continues to FAFO and lose massive businesses

Internal discussions in the Los Angeles Mayor's Office and the California Attorney General's Office were told Paramount would announce it was leaving California, but there's a twist ... sources tell TMZ.
We're told the Mayor and the A.G. were told the announcement would come yesterday, but it did not happen. We do not know if circumstances changed or if there was just a delay.
As you probably know, the California Attorney General -- other with 11 other state attorneys general -- have filed an anti-trust lawsuit against Paramount, trying to block the Warner Bros merger.
David Ellison, the CEO of Paramount, has threatened to move the studio to Texas, Tennessee or Georgia if the Cali A.G. didn't back off and settle.
There were settlement negotiations over the last few months, but they couldn't reach a deal. Attorney General Rob Bonta said Paramount was being unreasonable.
Ellison threatened to leave California if a settlement wasn't reached by October 1st. Based on conversations in both the Mayor's and Attorney General's offices ... it sounds like no deal is possible.
If Paramount pulls the trigger, it will be a devastating 1-2 punch for Hollywood. "American Idol" is leaving Hollywood for Atlanta. Many other productions have also left Hollywood over the last few years. Fact is ... if Hollywood isn't dead, it's dying.
We reached out to Paramount ... they said "no comment."

On one hand, California failing and failing is pretty fun
on the other hand, its just more libs fleeing a blue state to a red state, learning 0 lessons, and turning a red state blue

What if all the corporations with their h1bs and libs move out and normal people can move back to California

The majority of the employees are of the “Vote Blue No Matter Who” crowd. This will bring even more Dem voters to one of these states if this actually happens.

With the decentralization of skills and really no need for having everything located at a studio lot, this was always going to be a risk for the state.
They also deferred so much to special effects and green screen work there isn't as much need for a physical space either. Now with AI that going to be doing the heavy lifting for special effects and soon even full production what incentive is there to stick around in a high tax state that is openly working against your best interest?

AI will generate everything a lot cheaper, sans the self-righteous preachy assholes who are "famous".

We're doing it to ourselves and yet the dumbass leftist voters out here can't seem to figure that part out.
Have fun with the new jobs and industries it brings to you.
On a sidenote.. how fricking inept does a party have to be to make California of all places a disaster? We have everything you could possibly want out here and the dems have done everything in their power to destroy it and they've largely succeeded. Idiots.

Can't be right... experts on this site told me this couldn't happen when the first response came out.
I wish they would.

Come to North Shreveport, Paramount. I'll write a couple of screenplays to sweeten the pot.

What is a good reason for any business to continue to stay there?
Maybe if you could have a black market business that ignores state and local taxes.
I can not think of one.
