Buckeye Institute Issues
Since I’ve been exposing myself to Dan Wismar’s blog, and Matt Naugle’s, and The Buckeye Institute, I’m struggling with their spin on things. In the link above, Dan talks about the Institute’s core values. How does this post reflect those values?
Cleveland, Dayton, and the other Ohio cities that are considering or in the process of implementing municipal telecom programs should take a word of caution from a nearby city weighing the same option:A public-private committee charged with exploring the Wi-Fi issue and making recommendations on how the city can keep up with ever-changing communications technologies sees little hope for Pittsburgh following in Philadelphia’s footsteps…
On their website, the Buckeye Institute says “Solutions NOT platitudes or empty rhetoric
We believe in offering tangible policy prescriptions that will improve the lives of all Ohioans.”
I’ve looked at their policy papers and read their blog. I’m not seeing “tangible policy prescriptions that will improve the lives of all Ohioans.” I’m seeing parochial advice from a bunch of academics who’ve probably never ran a business or paid taxes on anything more then the salary the draw from state supported universities.
What do you see?
