The Washington State economy is the fastest growing in the US according
to Business
Insider “Washington state scored extremely well on most
of our metrics. Its Q2 2015 annualized GDP growth rate was a stunning 8.0%, by far the highest among the states and DC. The
November 2015 average weekly wage of$1,073 was
the second highest in the country, and was 5.6% higher
than the weekly wage in November 2014, the third highest wage growth rate.”
There are many voices of Cassandra predicting doom and gloom
especially in an Presidential election year.
The reality is that we are still the richest country in the history of
the world and getting richer.
Unfortunately income inequality is leaving many people behind while insanely
greedy others fight to increase their share of already incomprehensible wealth
preying on racial, religious and medical FUD.
I am grateful for a growing economy that provides
opportunities for all.
