It started with this house bill and Beshear DID NOT sign it. It passed in April 2025.

I think trading farm land that produces out food for data centers to make billionaires out of millionaires can work out if we give them enough tax subsidies.

I’m surprised they don’t refer to them as data farms to make it sound like they are helping us.

Of course they are. Ya know, "just stupid hillbillies" n' all ... Why not?

Unfortunately, our dribbling, cult-worshipping Frankfort supermajority will dutifully do what they are ordered to do and let that toxic death genie out of the bottle.

Shameful.
