Please keep your ideas in your state. <br /><br />How bad does Cali's economic situation need to get before you'd admit a problem? Your state is number 2 behind Michigan for unemployment.<br /><br />The problem with progressivism is that progressives never admit that what is being done is wrong based on poor conservative generationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614578478747561732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571885563565623577.post-10038531251636049182009-05-12T01:31:00.000-04:002009-05-12T01:31:00.000-04:00ALCOA?

It built housing communities and research stations to attract workers. Short of being damned good at making aluminum, their impact on the nation was non existant.

How about the massive amounts of new growth in retail and dining in upstate NY to encourage construction and tourism? As many bad examples you can recite, I can recite examples of growth.
