To land Meta’s massive $10 billion data center, Louisiana pulled out all the stops. Will it be worth it?

Right? Wouldn’t the insurance costs outweigh how cheap the land is?
North eastern Louisiana is no more likely to see a hurricane than southern Arkansas or mid-Mississippi

Louisiana has been doing this for decades. It's the same old story of large corporations getting massive tax breaks while little guys gets screwed over.

Honestly kind of surprised they'd put a data center there. Isn't Louisiana known for swamps and hurricanes?
musk put grok in bum fuck middle oTENNESEE polluting the area.

All that destruction to provide a couple of hundred jobs. These dumbass politicians think Meta is bringing in a factory, like the old days.
because these welfare states offer next to no corporate taxes thats why they move there. even WF is based in texas, a chain for the "eco-conscious customers"

Only south Louisiana. They’re putting the data center more north.

I knew a very large company that was offered a hundred million dollars if they would build their factory in Louisiana. They didn’t do it because the workforce could not support the factory. Not enough engineers and higher education workers, but plenty of line workers.
Mets is going to take the money and run. They’ll meet minimum requirements then hollow it out.

My first thought was Wells Fargo but they’d burn down a rainforest for an extra tenth of a percent.
