    So like everyone else? Crazy that governments will consider giving takes breaks to these drain on local resources and looking to be a net negative for jobs.

      Unfortunately not. The state law allows for local municipalities to make nondisclosure agreements with the data centers which would hide the costs from consumers altogether, and they’re raising prices regardless.
