Right now there are state govts bending over backwards to provide cheap energy for data centers. The difference is being paid by people who live nearby through increased electricity costs. This is a tax with just extra steps

Shit, the government providing infrastructure in response to public demand? Outrageous use of taxes!

[jjulius]

Your sarcastic comment mistakes "public demand" for what is actually private sector demand.

Good point, companies should be exempt from taxes since they aren't expected to count or benefit from infrastructure improvements
