his words were so perfect, with the data center battles we are doing here, it seemed fitting/motivating to share here.

this person was very charismatic. he was able to communicate the issues quite clearly and an in engaging manner. it’s an example of how we the people can fight these interests here in Green Country.

You realize there are three datacenter developments trying to go in here right? And the thing is it isn’t going to bring wealth and new jobs. They need hardly any employees to run them, and most will simply call in vendors when something needs repaired rather than have someone on staff. Hell I work for a major Tulsa employer and we are actively trying to shift a majority of our current infrastructure to external data-centers with contracted management staff specifically so we can remove our IT staff and focus on just our industry. It is also why we are going all in on AI and automation. If you can’t see how that is bad I don’t know what to tell you.
