Perspective: Data Center vs New Orleans
Astute comment from NOLA.com :

The META Al data center is a $50 billion dollar investment.
And will generate 1000 or more construction jobs - for about 3-4 years. Then it will employ maybe 100 persons.
And it will pay no taxes for decades. Not an economic plus, in my opinion.
Meanwhile, the New Orleans area provides about 1/4 of all jobs, state taxes, and development for the entire state. And it does it year after year after year. If it weren't for New Orleans, Louisiana would just be Mississippi.
