> and people who depend on taxes

What is that supposed to mean?

We all depend on taxes. Have you heard of public infrastructure? NASA? DoJ?

It's super disingenuous to pretend that the average employee is somehow getting massive value from giant tech companies. Someone would need to be very (probably intentionally) oblivious to believe that.

OP meant people employed by local city and state governments, that the tech company resides in probably.
