Be brutally honest: Are you deeply outraged that, while hundreds of millions of Americans and I are struggling financially, Elon Musk has now become the world's first trillionaire, with more wealth than he could spend in 1,000 lifetimes? Yes or no?
🚨NEW TENNESSEE LAW REQUIRING DATA CENTER CORPORATIONS TO PAY ENTIRE COST OF UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE IS A MUCH NEEDED WIN FOR COMMUNITY🚨
Tennessee just sent a message to every state in America:
If Big Tech wants to build massive AI and hyperscale data centers, THEY pay the bill.
Not taxpayers.
Not families struggling with inflation.
Not small businesses already drowning in utility costs.
THEM.
For years, Americans have been told that giant corporations bringing in data centers is an automatic win. Jobs. Growth. Progress.
But what they don’t tell you is that these facilities can consume staggering amounts of electricity and require billions of dollars in new transmission lines, substations, and grid upgrades.
And guess who often gets stuck helping pay for those upgrades?
YOU.
Your electric bill.
Your community.
Your local infrastructure.
Tennessee just drew a line in the sand and said enough.
If a data center needs massive new power infrastructure, the company building it bears the cost—not the public.
That means families aren’t forced to subsidize trillion-dollar tech companies.
That means retirees on fixed incomes aren’t paying higher utility bills so AI servers can run 24/7.
That means local governments aren’t pressured into socializing the costs while privatizing the profits.
This is what real corporate accountability looks like.
Whether you’re pro-AI or anti-AI isn’t even the point.
The point is simple:
If a corporation creates the demand, the corporation should pay the cost.
Not the people.
Tennessee may have just created the blueprint every state should follow.
RT if you believe taxpayers should NEVER be forced to subsidize Big Tech’s power addiction. 🇺🇸⚡️🔥
