Texas even subsidizes the energy bill of crytominers directly, they receive discounts and subsidies while consumers pay more and more:

Most water systems have similar deals. Customers will pay a fixed rate infrastructure base fee plus a usage fee, that usage fee for residential is higher than the discounted rate industry receives.

Much like corporations venue shopping municipalities for tax discounts, we need a Federal ban on these corporate subsidies at a Federal level to put us all back on a fair playing field.
