Good points, although just a matter of time. The DC area functions as regional support for basically all large tech companies.
The article makes it seem like an absurdity to the founding fathers to imagine such a large multi-national corporation being there. But they certainly could imagine this, the revolutionary war was a fight against the British East India Company inextricably tied to Britain until the entity dropped stewardship of these colonies out of budgetary concerns. Masquaraded as a decisive victory to support its new national identity, it was clear that corporate control of the government would not be the stance of the new American government.
Yes then the largest public company in the world moving there does theeaten this. But at the same time, that ship has long sailed and this just reminds everyone.
