utah feast others famine

Ever wonder why so many states are having serious cash flow problems and laying off state employees by the thousands? Well if you live in Utah you don't have that problem. Why? How about the fact that the state of Utah actually is fiscally responsible, is creating jobs and even has a surplus. Golly would you look at that. While more than 20 states are begging for bread including California, Georgia, and Wisconsin and so on and so on, Utah is going into overdrive with an economic job growth plan for the next decade. So again, it just begs the question, how in the world does Utah sit on piles of cash, while other states are more than eager to stand in the Fed sponsored free soup line? When you figure it out, let me know too.

As far as economics goes, Utah is moving in the direction of a service state. Moreover, Utah has a well education pool of employment candidates i.e. job candidate pool, to keep the local economy thriving while further focusing on growth. Now let's throw good housing prices in the mix...that's right $150,000 buys you a lot in Utah these days. Conversely, $150K gets you a shoe box in New York or California. All things considered it shouldn't be hard to see why Utah is ahead of the game economically speaking. Okay, but then if that's so, why anyone would go to North Carolina looking for a pot of gold. Last, I heard there isn't any pot of gold in NC. As a matter of fact, you might have to fight for a job a Walmart in the outskirts of Charlotte or Raleigh. So, who knows why folks are headed to NC. What is known is that Utah feasts while others, many others, wallow in famine.
