Re:Louis Rossmann explains why he left New York by jjeaff on Saturday December 10, 2022 @02:14PM (#33935763)
Don't even have to watch and I can guess the why. He built up a business using the dense, relatively wealthy New York ecosystem, despite the difficulty created by heavy regulation.

Now, his business has either grown large enough online with non-local customers that he can leave New York and still do well ... Or his social media is enough of a business unto itself to leave.

Which I think is fine. But it's also important to recognize that many of these people leaving urban areas like this would never have been able to build a business had they not started their business where they did.

This is wrong and you should just watch the video before getting on your soapbox. Or at least click on it and see the title which almost certainly tells you why.

Heavy regulation isn't the issue, its heavy bureaucracy as a stick to beat people with.

His ""violations"" were all mistakes on the cities part or auditors trying to pigeonhole things into regulations they don't apply to.

He followed the regulations, and that wasn't even good enough.

You say he "used the dense, relatively wealthy New York ecosystem," to launch a business, but from their prospective i bet they feel they started a company in their hometown and then their hometown spat in their face in an attempt to get more money.
