路易斯安那州提供诸如Meta和Amazon等科技巨人大规模税收减免 — 节省36亿美元 — 用于数据中心建设,包括100%免除对服务器、基础设施和设备的国家和地方销售税。 Louisiana is offering tech giants like Meta and Amazon massive tax breaks—up to $3.6 billion in savings—on data center construction, including 100% exemptions from state and local sales taxes on servers, infrastructure, and equipment. 与270亿美元的Meta项目和其他项目挂钩的这些激励措施被视为吸引主要投资的必要条件,尽管人们担心电力需求、用水和长期财政费用不断增加。 These incentives, tied to a $27 billion Meta project and others, are seen as essential to attract major investments despite concerns over rising electricity demand, water use, and long-term fiscal costs. 虽然国家领导人强调创造就业和经济增长,但交易反映了国家竞相争取数据中心项目的国家趋势,往往牺牲短期税收收入。 While state leaders highlight job creation and economic growth, the deals reflect a national trend of states competing for data center projects, often at the expense of short-term tax revenue.
