1 ...SC is working on a plan where they will slowly ratchet the state income tax down until it goes away. And for that matter, Social Security, retirement pensions, and a good chunk of 401k withdrawals are absolutely tax free. I retire in February, and I'm glad I stayed here.

Think about this....
Data Centers would pay the TAXES to offset that level lost in state revenues.

Which means Data Centers will have to charge fees to outset it and still make a 10% to 30% Profit for operations and investors.

So, we'll be eventually paying the taxes thru the Data Centers or it business customers, in their increased costs.

Plus what is to keep Local/State Gov's from restarting any TAX?
