>So? Since when is there a floor for the number of jobs a business has to create?
There doesn't have to be but since when is it not in a municipalities ability to make determinations as to what kinds of business can operate within its jurisdiction?
You are just putting off the hard work into "doing anything illegal" which is even more ironic considering this is a thread about people either a)passing laws which make constructing ai datacenters illegal or b) voting out politicians they do not believe are acting in the interest of the constituency
> Yes, I literally support repealing laws that would prevent someone from building an AI data center anywhere it's legal to build any kind of commercial or industrial facility at all.
That's not the same thing as the question I asked. That's the answer to "do you support laws that would prevent someone from building an AI data center anywhere it's 'legal' to build any kind of commercial or industrial facility at all."
On the face, not all zoning is the same so it's pretty obvious to me that not all "industrial facilities" are appropriate to build where other "industrial facilities" already exist. For example, there's industrial baking facilities in my neighborhood, but there are not industrial chemical refining facilities in my neighborhood. The latter aren't allowed. By your logic, am I to assume this is okay because it's already the current state of affairs? That just uses an arbitrary date to filter - nonsensical imo. By your logic am I to assume that my neighborhoods prohibition against industrial chemical refining is just inappropriate because we allow industrial baking? We're trying to make sense of the world, not virtue signal via "policy"
Deeper, it's a statement that is so absurdly generalized as to be capable of giving it any useful meaning. You support the construction of AI data centers as a concept? Great. How am I supposed to use this information to navigate any actual disputes about where AI data centers should and shouldn't go.
haha
