1. Yup. The smart and talented will leave. Brain drain. I predicted this myself.

2. If Corporate America is not totally stupid, they will pull their businesses out and cease further

major moves to Texas. It isn't just their female workers but all workers who may be impacted by this legalized negligent manslaughter of women. And parents? Why the hell would you let your daughters go to Texas schools? Frankly, sons too, given what could happen to those they care about.

I say this with considerable concern and sympathy to Texas DUers. But this is beyond redemption for the state of Texas and that MAGA-filled Federal Court.

3. well, if they want to send us the brightest and the immigrants who want to work.....

We should return the favor and send them trump voters. Busloads of them.

They will be much happier in texas. And texas won't care they are dumber than rocks and don't want to work.

4. Eli Lilly was worried about attracting/retaining women...

…after Dobbs decision. Worried women (and their boyfriends/spouses) might opt to leave Indiana for states without draconian health laws.

More, those other states might mention that to recruits to make them think about their decision to work for EL in Indiana - or use it to steal current employees on whom they have spent considerable $$ training.

Not a bad objective for those states to start doing that. Start with Indiana and Texas.

5. Reasonable, trained and hardworking people

Leaving behind a republican shit-hole.

Which will just get deeper and deeper.
