4 thoughts on “Gov. Holcomb’s accessibility, personal touches shape economic legacy, colleagues say

  1. Here’s the stone cold reality: In 2016 Indiana’s per capita income was 88.1% of the national average. In 2023 (the most recent year), it fell to 87.7.

    The unwillingness of civic leaders to face up the reality of what has happened in Indiana in the last 20 years in terms of quality of life and economy measures (income, education, health, etc) means that nothing is likely to change anytime soon.

    1. What civic leaders?

      One of the legacies of consolidation is that we have far fewer Indiana-based business leaders. And of those remaining, their primary interests have not been the people of Indiana.

    1. Hey, it could have been worse. One of the other candidates who filed to be chosen was Todd Rokita. (Recall this was when Pence stepped aside after the primary, so the voters didn’t have a say.)
