Solution: construct the buildings upside down, so the foundations are up in the air and the roofs are underground. That way, the electricity will flow down instead of up.
But then the roof has to support the entire weight of planet Earth on top of it, which is a much harder engineering challenge than pumping the electricity in the first place.
Which begs the question why not magnets at the top of the building to help pull the electricity up?
Because nobody knows how magnets work.

No, it’s not. It’s all empty space under the foundation. There’s nothing to create crushing force against the building.
You are failing to account for the weight of the atmosphere on the foundation
The atmosphere is just air. Air doesn’t have mass or weight, that’s why it floats.
Because the electricity pulls the magnets down in the same measure, so they meet in the middle. Newton’s 2nd law or something.
