Well, according to the OP's post (who is a hater on CT) - CT ranks higher than any northeast state.

You are right. This one shows Connecticut having the highest job growth rate in the northeast.

So which is it? Are we going to generate the highest rate of job growth in the northeast or the worst in the country? We can't have it both ways.

The Forbes article was discussed before and as I stated then, it appears to be based on a striaght line projection of job growth over the past couple of years. It does not take into account the fact that Connecticut's economy is such that we get hit by recessions later than other states and then come out of them later as well. Jay

You'd think that someone who supposedly makes a living selling property in the state would not spend so much time, energy and bandwidth poo pooing allover the same state in such sophmorish ways that he has displayed.

Written by a senior fellow at the ultra-conservative Cato Institute, and citing mostly similarly conservative sources as evidence. So, it's not exactly an unbiased source.

And I say that as a person that is not a fan of Malloy.

And you could surely do much better in the business if you didnt waste so much energy with BS hyberbole that devalues the same product that you are trying to sell. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
