The source for this graph is from Focus.com, a network of business and technology experts, offering some interesting ideas and smart discussions on many business topics. Oughta be required reading for our local business magnates. Wondering how this might apply to Wusta. Haven't heard anything coming outta City Hall since Mayor Joe "Kumbayah" O'Brien presented his business council's recommendations last fall and ignited a firestorm of criticism from the city's residential taxpayers. Their recommendation: tax the shit outta the residential property owners. Reduce business property taxes by 50% in 3 years. Whoa!
We've posted criticism of Mayor Obie's obvious failings regarding business development in the city. Conclusion: sorry, it ain't never gonna work. Fact is, university studies have proven that jobs are created by large businesses, not the Ma & Pa's he's touting. But heck, whata we know.
So what will November bring? Same ole, same ole?
Welcome to Wusta!
