THE MYTH OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Economic development is not real. It is make-believe. People will live here they feel best. If it is a place they can see raising their children. A friendly, progressive, diverse community, with good schools, good streets, parks, developed neighborhoods, and a welcoming attitude. Short of an ocean, or mountains, or year round warm weather, that's about all you need. Well, and maybe a strip-joint or two.
