2 thoughts on “Big deals provide economic momentum; state still must focus on workforce

  1. Yes it is true we have to continue to develop our workforce. But we were told just a few months ago that due to our “left wing” policies and red state values, we would not be able to entice business to come to Indiana or expand existing operations. HMMMM guess that didn’t age well. Okay, now tell me how it could be BETTER. Of course it always can be.

  2. If Mike Hicks had lived in the 1890s would would have been an opponent of the horseless carriage, fearing the folks employed by liveries would be left out in the cold as automobile manufacturing (so much more technologically advanced!) became the new paradigm. Change is inevitable, and necessary, to a society’s survival. That’s why job training and retraining programs exist. Protecting a way of life rooted in the early 1900s will not long been competitive, and is sure to lead to more serious economic harm to the unskilled workforce than change.
