re: Surprise, Surprise. Entergy admits ratepayers will foot part of data center bill

Of course we will. We already are. My Entergy bills are higher these days even post-summer heat and no unusual usage. Only going to get worse across all utilities.

No, Entergy does not have anywhere close to the lowest rates in the nation. They are actually some of the absolute highest in the nation. Where are you getting your information?

That poster is 100% an Entergy shill. Worked there for nearly 10 years and they would brag about that shite repeatedly. As poorly run as most people think Entergy is, you don’t know the half of it unless you’ve been employed by them.

frick that

You’re falling for Chinese propaganda. The demo rats are on the side of “data center bad” and using it to scare all the blacks in this election cycle. Don’t be a moron.

Even the Chicoms know the rate payers are gonna get fricked by Entergy.

You don’t need Chinese bots to tell you that this is going to be a huge loss and inconvenience for Louisiana citizens (and Entergy customers elsewhere). Between increased expenses and the inevitable blackouts associated with the added demand, these concerns will come to fruition.

And all the DC advocates and people dismissing this as “Chinese propaganda” will disappear like tears in rain. Wash, rinse, repeat.

This guy gets it.

The institutions themselves are corrupt. Not in principal, but there are too many crooked bureaucrats to be able to clean things up simply by electing good people. And those “good people” are susceptible to corruption as well.
Our government institutions, like an old home, are essentially a tear-downs in need of renovation.

Do an AI search. Louisiana has the lowest rates at about 12.7 cents/kwh. Where’s your data coming from ?

And it - and SpaceX - get special property tax exemptions. Louisianans are suckers on these deals lol.
