RETURN ON TECHNOLOGY: Want to launch a rocket from your USB port?
I’m as much of a capitalist as anybody, but even I’m amazed sometimes at what a free market can come up with. Thanks to one little tiny addition to modern computers, a whole industry has opened up.

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS: Focusing on factory jobs misses the big picture
There’s been something peculiar going on in the business media in Indiana over the last few weeks. We’ve been beating ourselves up because the state is losing manufacturing jobs. Headlines about the decline are popping up, and state and local development officials are facing the bright light of media scrutiny.
