   a union thug and his cabal of communist academics have awoken a sleeping   
   giant: behold, your first look at the billionaire counterattack in the   
   war for California’s future   
      
      
   A few weeks back, I asked 21 California billionaires targeted by the   
   Service Employees International Union’s proposed wealth tax if they   
   planned to fight the ballot proposition, move, or some mysterious third   
   thing. Sentiment was darker than I anticipated. Almost everyone I spoke   
   with, including the California maximalists, was planning an exit. While   
   the architects of the ballot prop insisted “wealth flight” would never   
   happen — there was research, we were told; trust the experts!, the   
   commies cried — it was clear by the end of January they were not only   
   wrong about this, but about pretty much everything. To date, at least   
   half the wealth targeted by the SEIU’s Dave Regan and his cabal of   
   Marxist academics has moved from California, the SEIU has alienated the   
   governor, the teacher’s union (from what I’ve repeatedly heard), and   
   most center-left organizations in the state, and they’ve radicalized   
   even center left billionaires against special interests to a degree I’ve   
   never before seen. To put this in perspective, I know a billionaire tech   
   founder who supported Chesa Boudin, San Francisco’s infamous pro-crime   
   District Attorney, who is now prepared for war with every union in the   
   state.   
      
   But will a few angry billionaires be enough to avert catastrophe?
