Delaware’s corporate dominance is under fire as major companies flee the state’s overreach. Giants like Tesla, SpaceX, and Dropbox have already left, while Meta and Roblox are eyeing the exit. These businesses are tired of activist judges meddling in corporate decisions and slapping down hardworking CEOs. Delaware’s courts once promised stability, but now they’re making up rules that punish success and innovation.
Elon Musk’s $56 billion pay package was ripped up by Delaware judges—even though shareholders approved it. This radical move spooked executives nationwide. If a visionary like Musk can’t get fair treatment, what chance do other job creators have? Delaware’s legal system has become a playground for political agendas, not a protector of free enterprise.
Texas and Nevada are rolling out the welcome mat with common-sense laws that respect business leaders. These states shield directors from frivolous lawsuits and guarantee predictable legal outcomes. Nevada’s hands-off approach lets companies focus on growth instead of courtroom drama. It’s no wonder CEOs are rushing to these freedom-friendly states.
Delaware politicians panicked and rammed through a last-minute “fix” to stop the bleeding. Their so-called reforms protect billionaire investors but ignore everyday shareholders. Critics call it a crony capitalism giveaway, written by corporate lawyers to line their own pockets. This backroom deal proves Delaware cares more about power brokers than Main Street businesses.
The state’s $1.3 billion franchise tax empire is crumbling as companies vote with their feet. Nearly a third of Delaware’s budget relies on these fees—money that funds bloated bureaucracies, not taxpayers. Every exit weakens Delaware’s grip and emboldens states that put businesses first. The message is clear: punish success, and you’ll be left behind.
Roblox’s shareholders are set to approve a Nevada move next month, following Musk’s lead. Their board says Nevada’s laws align with innovation and shareholder value—unlike Delaware’s toxic red tape. This isn’t a trend—it’s a revolution. Entrepreneurs won’t tolerate being micromanaged by out-of-touch judges.
Governor Matt Meyer claims Delaware is still the “best place to incorporate,” but actions speak louder. His rushed reforms came too late for companies fed up with legal harassment. Delaware had decades to fix its broken system but chose woke activism over American competitiveness. Now, it’s paying the price.
The heartland is rising. States like Texas and Nevada understand that businesses thrive when government gets out of the way. Delaware’s fall from grace shows what happens when elitist judges attack the engines of prosperity. For patriots who believe in free markets, the choice is obvious: leave the swamp and reclaim American greatness.
