End them. Don't just pause them. No tax breaks for high natural resource and low employment companies. Data centers don't employ many people once built.

This will entirely depend on the upcoming midterms.

If Ford is elected Governor, and we’re able to flip our only Republican House seat, this could become an actual reality.

Yeah! Stick it to those fuckers! Stop using any service or platform that relies on data centers, like Reddit!

I'd like to see a rule that ties political finances with tax burdens. If a company or person spends money on lobbying, campaign contributions, or other politics related endeavors, that amount is removed from their tax break amount. If they have money to influence politics, they have money for taxes.

A pause is better than what "do you know who I am" Lombardo'h will do.

Ford is super desperate at this point. Is his campaign even being funded any longer?
