And for good reason: while AI enriches Big Tech CEOs and props up the stock market, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and power.
When the AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag. Be warned.

There are 2 current states (Wyoming and Vermont) that are less populated than DC.
There are 16 current states that are less populated than Puerto Rico.
Both Puerto Rican and DC residents deserve representation in US government and do not have it.

Just an obvious point that anyone with the inside word on when these these total reversals are going to be announced is in a position to make almost limitless amounts of money. Don't forget that given the kind of people who make up this administration.
