The Californian
Unfortunately this is how San Francisco went from being one of the most beautiful places to a slum city where everyone is leaving. Tax break or not all those businesses liberal San Francisco says good riddance to, are also taking jobs and taxes with them
The San Francisco liberal slum lords have lost most flagship businesses due to their liberal stupidity, easy on crime allowing shitting in front of restaurants and hotels, free stuff under $999.00 from any business you wish to steal from, cars are unsafe to park anywhere in SF
what's happening in San Francisco is happening in all blue California cities, this is how you start with a 98 billion budget surplus and quickly turn it into a 39billion deficit
Tax what used to be the hard working middle class, give to anyone not working citizen or illegal and avoid taxing the wealthy donors and keep the personal bribes coming
15, 2023, to about 20,450. That's an average of nearly 59 car break-ins every day in San Francisco. In 2019, police recorded over 25,900 thefts from vehicles in the city during that same time period.

Elon Musk’s X Is Leaving San Francisco. City Officials Say ‘Good Riddance.’​

But city officials are not lamenting the exit. X bears little resemblance to the company that San Francisco wooed with a tax break more than a decade ago, when it was Twitter, to help anchor a budding tech hub in a downtrodden neighborhood near City Hall known as Mid-Market. The pandemic, and Mr. Musk’s 2022 acquisition of the company and subsequent gutting of its work force, reduced the headquarters to a ghost town.

“I share the perspective that most San Franciscans have, which is good riddance,” said City Attorney David Chiu, who as a member of the city’s Board of Supervisors backed the tax break that lured Twitter to Mid-Market in 2012.

Are the San Fran elite going to haughtily and smugly dismiss every business that leaves them? I'm sure they have their pseudo-ideological justification for why they decided that San Francisco didn't need X anyways; but, coming up, only more businesses will leave the area. These businesses are not disposable.

Would the city rather have its wokeness or its economy? They will have to choose one or the other, because we can already see that both cannot coexist.
