    Hell with billionaires and tax cuts to increase something the average person won’t enjoy, I bet it’s even more than thrice.

    Property tax increase cause property is used but not taxed due to being a ‘big project’, if another company built there (besides say wal mart it’d be taxed)

    Power bill increase, which we see happens to OPs post.

    Using land that could benefit the area, it’s probably a large complex that could help the locals and not make their power bill larger.

    Having a complex that heats up local area for things not beneficial to locals. Global warming but thankfully some ai model will grow?

    Using water that makes drinking water worse for locals. Read stories of people near data centers, losing all water pressure so the data center can have water. Cause that’s more important than people.

    Only helping the person who built it vs the locals. I really have no idea who data centers help. I assume some are for the crappy bit we see when we Google but so many must be private. Also who hasn’t learned to go through search results? Seriously that’s a skill needed, if you don’t have it you need to learn. I may have accepted the new paradigm but I would prefer a bit of work going back to searching.

    There no good reason for this crap. They get built but don’t benefit anyone but the rich. They just want serfs anyways, is that the real future?
