Beshear Pushing Data Centers

About this episode

Andrew Cooperrider discusses Governor Beshear's efforts to promote data centers in Kentucky and the implications of tax incentives for local citizens.

Beshear admits he is trying to sell the idea of data centers to Kentuckians. I discuss exactly why politicians everywhere are giving away tax incentives and taxpayer cash in order to attract massive data centers to their areas, despite the citizens they are supposed to represent not wanting them there. Beshear gave us a huge hint as to why with his statements.
