This summer, the Milken Institute released its second report on manufacturing in California. Seven years the institute sounded the alarm that California was losing its manufacturing edge, the driving force for postwar prosperity from the aerospace industry through high technology. The institute said policy makers should pay attention to the state’s manufacturing decline. http://www.comstocksmag.com/Articles/0909_D_politics.aspxIf the state of California is going to recover from the recession it’s going to have to have a serious debate how to rebuild the declining manufacturing base of this state. The report illustrate and in my previous posting on this blog, this state encourages the very opposite of creating jobs with other states capitalizing on the turmoil in California. This report should be a wakeup call to everyone that we can’t keep losing quality jobs to other states; we have to make it easier for business to want to come to California and create jobs here.
