AI data centers will destroy what’s left of the middle class
I know the show has covered this topic, but I’m experiencing this firsthand and cannot stress enough how detrimental and existential this issue is to society. Despite using less electricity (kWh) in August and September, my utility bill increased 157% in just two months. I’m going to emphasize this increase of 157%! 1. This cost increase should be illegal at this rate and 2. Working middle class cannot and should not subsidize big tech to build these data centers. These people who let this occur are demons and need to be held accountable. If this trend continues to go unchecked and unregulated, people will be chased out of their houses and go broke from these rising utility costs in an already inflated economy.
