That'll Work By Bob Spitzer's idea on how to boost New York's economy: New York Governor Eliot Spitzer, in his first address to a joint session of the Legislature, asked lawmakers to strengthen the state's economy by such measures as boosting spending for transportation projects and a $2 billion bond proposal for stem-cell research. Anyone want to bet on how effective this will be in boosting the economy? I'll take the under. In all seriousness, upstate New York economy is pretty bad by national standards. The city of New York survives because the costs imposed by the state and local officials are small when you're employing investment bankers and lawyers. The story is different in other sectors of the economy and the rest of the state suffers. Good luck Mr. Spitzer with your program, You need it. -- January 3, 2007 8:29 PM truckandbarter.com
