Ken Notes: Great Read!!! My biggest fear is that while Judy is a billionaire many time over, if she ever wants to spend they money she will have to cash out, and Google, Amazon, and others would be standing in line with truckloads of cash for her. She has said never, but billions????? | ||

Ken Notes: New blood might be good here, but I hate the practice of having to fall on the sword for problems you did not create. Caleb was not responsible for an antiquated computer system that should have been updated years ago. Nor was he responsible for the staff levels the budget allocated pre-pandemic. I remember working for the state as a computer consultant 25 years ago, my job was to travel to every county and plug in a piece of hardware for the child support data system, problem was only on county had a computer that the device fit into. Paul Jaden comes to mind, he finds problems at WEDC and is asked to take the blame for them instead of fixing them... | ||

| From jobs to housing, the coronavirus pandemic has transformed Wisconsin`s economy | ||
Ken Notes: Good read and great overview of where we are now and where we are headed. I can`t stop thinking about the 3 trillion we have spent without identifying where the real problems are. We have exponentially widened the gap between the have and have nots with little planning to fix it. We have not yet begun to see the overall impact of Covid... My crystal ball says it will get ugly... | ||

| Evers announces grant program to aid tourism industry as fall foliage begins | ||
Ken Notes: Here is yet another example of fixing a problem without knowing the overall impact. What we need to do is create programs, space, and support for bringing more tourists to Wisconsin post Covid. We dropped the Escape to Wisconsin tag line, but I promise after Covid we will look good to the Chicagoan`s looking for calmer waters. While 8 million sounds good this is a 22 Billion dollar industry. So one half of one percent??.. | ||

| City grants and loans a business lifeline | ||
Ken Notes: With interest rates so low, I wish we made all of our investments now in the form or no interest delayed payment loans. Then at the end pandemic we could evaluate what we need to forgive in part or in whole. As it stands now we have given trillions in grants and businesses are still failing, while others did not need the grants in the first place. I asked a friend why his successful manufacturing facility took a large PPP (first round) loan when he had little or now slowdown. His reply was because his competitors had and the money was just sitting there. | ||
