There is middle ground to be achieve between providing social programs and the right level of taxation
Who could see this coming that jobs would go out the door as employment shrunk by 88,000
P/T jobs are gone which is par for the course as many of them were Christmas related, right? Except that in January 2017 57K net new jobs were created, right?

Its industry base is shifting toward diverse, knowledge-driven industries, while the region is increasingly leveraging border location and economic synergies with Canada. The region’s population, while shrinking on the whole and older compared to the nation, includes highly educated and mobile workers. Together these forces have important implications for emerging demands for labor, workforce readiness and opportunities for regional economic growth.
Real truth - Canada and United States - GDP - January 2018paul young cpa, cga
GDP is key measurement for a country. Allot is said about GDP, especially by various government. The reality is government gets to much credit for booming economy and too much fault for recession.
There are many factors drive GDP including taxation, business returns, consumer spending and government spending. 2/3 of economies tend to be driven by consumer spending. If you set policies that takes more money out people’s pocket book then that will lead to less consumer spending.

Let's have a discussion about capitalism and socialism. This slideshare makes the case that what we need is more capitalism as it is the system that reduces poverty and actually delivers a better overall quality of life. Yes, there are improvements that can be made, but let's have that discussion before we make revolutionary changes that have not worked well in other places.

The Building a New Michigan Plan is a fact-based roadmap to help Michigan become a “Top Ten” economic competitor by 2020. It is the successor to Business Leaders for Michigan's Michigan Turnaround Plan (MTP), which was designed to restart economic growth after the Great Recession.
“Thanks to the support of the public, policy makers, business and community leaders, much of the MTP has been accomplished, with positive results—new jobs, higher incomes and a growing population. Now that we’ve shored up our economic foundation, it’s time for us to get building,” said Patrick Doyle, Domino’s President & CEO and BLM Board Chair.
Doyle said while the state’s economic growth has been promising, there is much more to be accomplished.
“The Great Recession hit Michigan harder than any other state, so while our recent growth has been impressive, we’re still not where we should be in absolute terms,” Doyle said. “The Turnaround Plan headed us in the right direction. The new plan is designed to complete the mission of getting us to become a Top Ten state.”
If Michigan was performing like a Top Ten state today, there would be 120,000 more Michiganders working and $11,000 more income per person annually.
This presentation will look at employment trend by demographics as well as sector and province.
The presentation will discuss growth areas of employment, especially in areas of temporary work.

Over the past few decades, the demographics and psychographics of people have shifted. As has the world around through through the prevalence of technology, content and social communications. These factors have shifted what people look for when deciding where to live. As a result, cities are having to change the ways in which they plan their spaces, provide services and communicate with current and prospective residents. Assuming they want to remain relevant, that is. Marketers in the private sector have been doing these things successfully for hundreds of years. It is time cities learned a thing or two from marketers in order to use more modern tools such as big data and content marketing to attract and retain visitors and residents.
