      Corporations aren’t centralized, they just need de-regulated property to set up operations on. There’s a reason Muskrat moved to Texas, and it’s nothing to do with “wokeness.” They don’t care if the landscape around them is shanty-towns and hovels of desperate peasants, and that’s also exactly what they want.
