Not with this administration overseeing things
FT asking 
is insane. I'm happy to pay for quality journalism but that's simply out of reach for most Americans. I'd love to know how their management determined this was an appropriate price.
It looks like the $75/mo rate is for their "premium" package. Their standard one is $39/mo.
It looks like that's on the high side, but not radically so compared to typical American newspapers.

The companies involved, the industry, and the regulators currently can't be trusted; this project should be killed.
You would rather power it with natural gas? Because that is what would largely power it otherwise. The datacenter does not turn off at night.
Or .. maybe the datacenter shouldn't use so much power to produce something of extremely questionable worth to our species. 🤷♂️
Awesome. Your next step should be: getting appointed to the hooded and robed "council that decides the intrinsic worth of every human endeavor and inculcates this via subliminal carrier wave to the whole species".
Make that "maybe" come true kiddo!
Yes.
Good I hope the Pennsylvanians hate it.
