“They're giving $10,000 to all of the people in the community”

What the record shows
NorthPoint Development promised $10,000 per eligible household in Hazle Township, PA, contingent on project completion. Meta's Richland Parish data center generated $50,000 teacher bonuses via tax revenue (2026). No universal $10,000 community dividend currently being distributed.
Present tense 'giving' misrepresents a conditional future promise as current action. Louisiana bonuses are real but tied to tax revenue, not direct company payments.
