Jobs or Productivity, Do we focus on creating jobs or improving productivity? Options

[Guest_Phil Lundman_*]

Improving tools increases productivity and earnings and also reduces the cost to the consumer. The lower cost saves the consumer money allowing them to buy more products and services. The increased productivity also means those who do not have the tools cannot compete but they do realize the savings from the lower cost commodities. How can you help SJA help those who are left behind without the education and tools to compete in their local or world market.
