Description
Summary:
Bruce Morton reports on the economic turnaround in the state of Massachusetts, and on whether or not Governor and presidential candidate Michael Dukakis is responsible for the recovery. Dukakis asserts that the state government led by him is responsible for the recovery, and that he can translate that growth to the whole of the country. John Fan, CEO of the Kopin Corporation in Taunton, MA, explains how Governor Dukakis offered generous financial incentives for his company to stay in Massachusetts. Harvard economics professor Ronald Ferguson says that the state government played a minuscule role in Massachusetts development, and that the growth of national and international demand for the technology and defense manufacturing is what led to the growth. Thomas Hart, Mayor of Davenport, Iowa, says that building relationships between the public and private sector can help to save jobs in Iowa.
