    All these fucking companies should be paying all the electrical fee increases. Our rates shouldn't go up because of their bullshit. They should fuckin own the cost.

    So these AI data centers,

    1. Increase my electric bill.
    2. Increase my water and sewer bill.
    3. Poison the air with unregulated natural gas generators.

    Thanks ChatGPT!

    But think about all the slop posts and worthless customer service bots you could be missing out on!

    Does a local town/city benefit from a business based on the actual sale/bills/salary?

    I recently visited a few data centers and felt that after all the construction work is done, they don't have more than a few people working from these facilities. So in terms of local job creation, once the construction is over, it doesn't move the needle even by a second.

    Will our new governor, the one we pushed for so hard, do something about this? Can she?

    Why are you giving Murphy a pass for allowing it?

    Why do you think I am? At all? I'm not.

    It's outrageous this is happening. But Murphy isn't going to do shit so I'm looking forward.
