Ranking the States for the New Economy
A Business Week article talks about a Kauffman Foundation study that ranks states in their "New Economy" strength. In case you're wondering, Oregon rank is #17 this year. In 1999 we were 15. In 2002 we were #13. Not bad really (although this year's score is down.) You can read an analysis from the Seattle Post Intelligencer here. I haven't seen one from a Portland paper.
