Exactly, thus the tax exemption to change that behavior. Foregoing tax revenue you were never going to get to help local businesses.

    Is this what is actually happening? Or is that just how you'd want for it to be done?

    What else could possibly be happening?

    You guys are talking about these like they're subsidies. If I were to read just the comments I would be left with the impression that the government is paying to build the data center using tax payers money while letting the corporation keep all the resulting profits tax free.
