I think it at least realizes that now.
Yeah.
Yeah, but like the political narrative, I think amongst a lot of ordinary Americans, is like data centers, they're going to raise your electricity prices, they're going to take all your water, and then they're going to take your job.
The reality is, given the deals that are being cut now, when a data center goes in, electricity prices actually generally go down for everyone around there because of behind-the-meter deals.
This is that, like, data center pledge that Trump asked people to sign.
Generally, the data center developer used to be they just had to get the police department or the fire departments, like, new trucks and new cars and new body armor or whatever.
Now it's like, we're going to build you a hospital, a school, a new police station, and a fire station.
Right.
And we're going to lower your power bills.
How does that sound?
And by the way, the jobs are ongoing because it turns out that you kind of need these plumbers, electricians, HVAC contractors, data centers are in a lot of ways the best thing to happen for blue-collar wages in my lifetime.
And yet you have the Democrats who ostensibly represent the blue-collar workers taking those jobs away.
It's just kind of wild how, what is the phrase, like a lie could go around the world?
Yeah, faster than truth gets out of bed.
But an author made a mistake in a book.
It overestimated the amount of water usage in data centers by 10,000 decks.
Not a little bit, like not one order of magnitude, not two orders of magnitude, not three.
She's admitted that mistake many times.
I was completely wrong.
It's like been super debunked.
