How do you get manufacturing to come back to your state?
Posted by scapozzola on 02/24/2012
CNN Money reporter Parija Kavilanz says that states like Indiana, Utah, and Idaho are betting on a resurgence in manufacturing, and are "aggressively rolling out the red carpet to businesses to set up shop or expand production within their borders."

You know, it is actually nice
You know, it is actually nice to hear that someone has faith in American manufacturing and are doing what is necessary to bring it back. The country really needs it and I hope their efforts are successful.
Taking the timeline to do the things needed to bring back manufacturing to America is what is really needed and it is nice to those with the guts to do it.
