Billionaire Flight From Blue States
- Wealthy left-leaning entrepreneurs are relocating from high-tax blue states to low-tax red states, driven by policies they once supported.
- Examples include Howard Schultz, Jeff Bezos, Sergey Brin, Larry Page, Ken Griffin, Travis Kalanick, and Mark Zuckerberg moving to Florida, Texas, Miami, or Austin.
Rising Homeless Spending With Worse Results
- City governments are spending vastly more per homeless person while homelessness increases, showing waste and perverse incentives.
- New York and San Francisco spend ~200% more per homeless person than 2019 yet homelessness rose by 30–80% because funds flow to nonprofits and administration, not solutions.
