Скачать или смотреть Governor Loses Control After Microsoft Closes Austin Studios, Cuts Tech Jobs

Microsoft didn't close Austin Studios because of "restructuring." Governor Abbott gave them $140 million in tax breaks for "Silicon Hills 2.0." Now 1,800 engineers, artists, and developers fired as Austin becomes more expensive than Seattle. Grid failures (17 outages costing $193M), housing crisis (62% engineer turnover), regulatory hell—Abbott's tech scam exposed.

Sara James breaks down Microsoft's operational collapse:

✅ $280M annual losses—revenue/employee 41% below company avg
✅ 84 hours grid downtime 2025 → $2.3M lost/hour ($193M total)
✅ Austin housing: $682K median home → engineers can't afford to live
✅ Every engineer replacement: $87K → $95M annual churn costs
✅ 19-month permitting delays → $46M lost productivity
✅ Sarah Kim: Relocated from SF, now underwater on condo
✅ Jamal Washington: Lost diabetes coverage, rationing insulin
✅ $68M property taxes gone—Austin schools suffer
✅ Office vacancy 27%, VC investment down 41%
✅ Abbott's $80M desperation offer → Microsoft says NO

Texas tech "boom" = corporate welfare fraud. Infrastructure failed, workers pay.
