We are probably overbuilding them but who cares as long as an area that is short $200M gets $14M per year from one

The same people who signed on to stop this will complain about underfunded social programs in their hood


I'll never understand people who cheer for "tax revenue".

Blacks love their ghettos. The Democrats have ensured them that they have their backs and will make it better for them, next election.

Free beer tomorrow!

You just don’t get it and if you aren’t woke or retarded you never will. People play dominoes and drink malt liquor there sometimes sell medication of the street variety. Sure a few wigs get split every now and then but dats jus da culcha

Annual Revenue: The project was projected to generate $13.7 million in annual local tax revenue for the county.


Before or after all the exemptions, tax credits, and incentives that would be given out?

These are legit concerns. There are solutions likely but we have yet to see them

It's like nobody even saw this but me.

UNREAL: ‘Grassroots’ Single Mom Activist Behind Maryland Data Center Moratorium Had a Helping Hand from Marxist-Leninist Group Tied to China “Taylor Frazier McCollum, the "grassroots" activist who has been credited with securing a moratorium on data center development in Prince George's County, Maryland, had extensive support from a China-linked group that widely promoted her campaign and even provided signs with its logo for the on-site demonstrations.

The group that collaborated with McCollum—a struggling single mom with no history of activism—is the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), a Marxist-Leninist group tied to notorious Beijing-based tech mogul Neville Roy Singham, who has been accused of bankrolling an extensive Chinese propaganda network.”

That is $14 MM the locals do not have to pay, unless their local govt is corrupt.

My bet: The locals pay just as much and the majority of that money gets wasted on bullshite beautification projects that later require it's own upkeep.

It's kind of like tariffs. If they are replacing the income tax - awesome. Otherwise it's just another tax.

I think if these data centers and what not really wanted the support of the people - they should give the money directly to them. I bet that would change some attitudes. Instead it's just going to government.

The locals paying the taxes is a certainty if this fat bitch wins her argument.

Somebody else will build it

Imagine bitches like this having a veto on advances.

If these assholes had been around however many thousand years ago we would not have fire.
