In Musk, San Francisco will be losing a dependable taxpayer. But no worries, city by the bay! You can easily replace him with more drug addicts and homeless people.
And now a word from YouTuber Metal Leo. He’ll take you on an interesting tour of closed and boarded up stores in San Francisco. Metal Leo has a bit of flair. I’ll give him that.

I doubt anyone was demanding she beg them to stay. Fact is her attitude precluded them from staying, she had already decided she wanted them to leave.
“City officials are going to be doing a lot of bidding farewell to businesses that are about to leave the city. The place is a s___hole that isn’t going to rebound.”
Detroit by the bay.
San Franshitsco
I’m probably preaching to the choir, but have you noticed how Bud Light don’t care so much about selling Beer? Disney don’t care about making movies people want to see?
These commies are in charge, and are playing by a set of rules we don’t understand.
Musk leaving SF is for them a big win. We don’t even understand their position, and think they’re just stupid. They are not.
Good riddance to another piece of tax base. Money isn’t everything.
Later, alone: WAAAAAAH! IT IS! MONEY IS EVERYTHING! WAAAAAH!
Grapes of Wrath in reverse. The Joads return to Oklahoma.
That is good news for the progressive extremists. They will actually prefer that. Saying that to a liberal is not condemnation.
She doesn’t seem to struggle with dictating.
There is only one reason! It’s the Unburdened the past plan to introduce Socialism! Nothing else makes sense.
I don’t want to preach to the choir, either, but you see the same behavior in “Atlas Shrugged”. No one wants to work, and they don’t want anyone else to work, either.
That Rand didn’t have one damn answer, but she sure could describe the problems perfectly.
“The SF Doom Loop has started and they just won’t recognize it or acknowledge it.”
And the left asks: What does investments, jobs, income, food security, housing, health insurance, sanitation, school attendance, and personal safety have to do with living the good life in a big city?
And Ghiradelli chocolate is not to be ignored.
Is mental illness a job requirement for holding office in SF?
Yes, that’s true.
Maybe groups of humans are just inherently susceptible to this type of attack.
It would be easier to see and describe the problem than inspiring/motivating/catalyzing a large population to proper action to mount a defense.
Maybe there is an answer out there but no one seems to have it. It ain’t education, that’s for sure.
Indeed. I used to work at that building a few decades ago. The front half facing Market Street was the SF Furniture Mart, where fancy furniture makers would display their new offerings. The other half of the property was leased out to IT companies and the City of SF. The area became seedy with vagrants and drug addicts. The Furniture Mart pulled out and sold off their goods (I got a lot of bargains, like $1000 headboards for $50, $500 chairs for $47, etc.), and other companies abandoned the area.
After Twitter bought the building, the area had an awakening with other tech companies and shops moving to the area. I expect that once X/Twitter leaves, the area will suffer with more homeless and addicts. Whole Foods abandoned a huge store a block away, just one year after opening. Now X will leave.
That is a lot of lost tax revenue for San Francisco
I’ll bet AI will conclude it’s best to leave
Exactly
