Technology won't pull out. Technology for the common people will become less available. There are millionaires that are in the technology field that are totally insulated from street level life. They are backing various developments with the idea that it would improve quality of life for citizens of the island. TMT permit gets revoked, all the private financing will go toward a space telescope that will be more powerful than the James Webb. All bioengineering research is banned, the research facilities will be built in China, along with all the benefits, the pharmacy building goes to Oahu.
These protectors are demanding they be returned to a serf class to serve a monarchy. Since all labor assisting technology will gradually disappear, there will be more need for indentured labor servants. Once the medical care goes, the retired will leave, needing good health care facilities. Once the retirees live, the real estate agents will start disappearing because most of the house buying is being done by retirees. Mob rule is great, it gives the mob what they demand.
"Aloha also means goodbye. Aloha!"
