    Big Tech should be locating large employment centers in strategic locations around the country. And by strategic I don’t mean where the talent, resources, or customers are located but rather where influential Congresspeople, Senators, and Governors are located.
I thought this was one of the problems of a Soviet style command economy. They would locate production not where it was more efficient and made economic sense, but where it was politically more beneficial.

If these companies start doing this they could lose to more efficient competition. Hope they aren't that stupid.

*Less efficient competition if they can't get the government to vote their way
