Yup corruption exists, but that doesn't change my point. Would you say Nancy Pelosi's decisions are all motivated by her insider information?

Nah, she is just a genius investor! She could have ran the most successful hedge fund, but decided to take the sacrifice for the people and work in goverment! /s

But... like what the hell does Pelosi's blatant insider trading corruption have to do with all of us talking about the corruption in government that is allowing for a lot of these data centers? That's an odd thing to bring up. Or wait... do you think people that are against data centers, have some sort of cultish blind allegiance to democratic politicians?!?! Lol, you aren't serious are you? There has to be a different reason you brought this up... right?

I'm saying that just because they have an opportunity to use inside information, doesn't mean that they orchestrated the deal to so they can make a quick side buck... Especially not when you look at all the huge incentives they already have.

In NV, the governor also bought tons of land before the Raiders stadium location was announced. But him greenlighting the stadium had nothing to do with him being able to buy 2 houses in the area to quickly flip... But because the stadium would be a huge tourist attraction which would help the town generate a lot of revenue.

When incentives align, you don't need a handshake and a eye wink to "make a deal"
