Mate, well-off people are were they are because they like living there and operate their businesses were they do because that's were they make money - they're not going to sacrifice their quality of life and profits merelly because they disagree with an elected politician.
Sure, they'll say they will because saying it literally costs them nothing, but they won't actually do it unless they're sure they will be better off by acting thus.
Only those who aren't high net worth individuals have to face themselves the difficulties of relocating, the well-off just pay somebody to deal with the headaches for them, so they never had any barrier to leaving other than that life won't be as good for them or doing business won't be as profitable elsewhere.
It's not by chance that the free market "paradise" free of government interference and taxes called "Somalia" hasn't attracted any high net worth individuals.
