Their success depends on nearly every tax funded activity: public education of workers, roads, bridges, sewer, mail,, law and enforcement, EMS, disaster protection, state/local funding & representation, etc. There is no reason that they would be immune or subsidized by all others paying taxes.

Corporate welfare is real. If we can't force them to pay 5heir employees a livable wage, then tax them to compensate.

Trump stupidly cut them. They need to go back up and more! I'm tired of the nations finance and debt being paid off the backs of the middle class. I'm tired of the people of this country getting screwed by the rich!

You better come up with a better plan. You and everyone else have always paid the bills. Tax this and tax that, we pay for it all. The corporation’s pass that to the customers. Time to get the facts.

Because they are entities not people, and people, mainly blue collar, should not have to carry the United States and big corporations on their backs! We are the ones who work to make the money for these companies, many of which don't pay a living wage.

The companies will just raise the cost of everything and pass the cost down to the consumer. It's the way Democrats destroy America.

They will just pass the increased tax on to the consumer in higher prices. or reduced compensation to their employees.

These taxes would be passed directly on to consumers. This would fuel inflation.

Corporate taxes are not paid for by corporations. They are paid by consumers. This is the middle class tax hike Biden promised would not happen. It is simply disguised as something someone else pays. Just another lie.

You have this one correct. We the consumers support the corporations and will be paying the higher taxes. Anything that the “President“ wants to spend, will always be paid by the general public, no matter how you present it. It pays to know who your voting for.

Only if they want massive investment that dramatically expands their taxbase and builds modern infrastructure close to the end users to support a growing futuristic economy. Unfortunately, Columbia city council listens to misguided special interests who live in leftist utopia dreamworld.

City leaders would rather tax the citizens. They don't want the city to grow.

Taking rural land away, hurts the environment. We're destroying our world. Notice none are close to the people that want them.

Large data centers can consume up to 5 million gallons of water per day, which is equivalent to the water use of a small city. Additionally, they can draw as much electricity as 100,000 homes or more, significantly impacting local resources. That is simply unacceptable.
