…that’s how our local economic news compares to the surrounding counties. Notice any difference?
Who is at the helm of our economy? When will county and city officials get engaged? The issue isn’t about how many county and city jobs we can save in the 2007-08 budgets. The issue is reviving our local businesses, improving wages and attracting more employers to the area. We may need to cut property taxes and other fees even deeper to stimulate this economy.
Otherwise, we’re putting lipstick on a pig.
