Another Statistic CT is Number One

18 July 2008

Apparently there is a glut of used office furniture in Connecticut.

Furniture in great shape that cost $10,000’s is going for 10 cents or less on the dollar, that is IF you can get someone to come out and even look at it. Much is going in the dumpster. This is quality name brand stuff.

I’ve heard of the cardboard index, where economists track how much cardboard is being sold as a measure of the economy as a whole. And the Empty Office space index is another popular metric.

I propose a new index, The Used Cubicle index. And possibly the Dumpster Index, as businesses trash out as they close and leave.

So now in the only State of the Grand Union that has LESS businesses now than 20 years ago, what proposals have we heard from elected officials to reverse the trend?

Silence from the Capitol. Come November we need to ROAR!

    But let a business make “too much profit”, and our intrepid Attorney General will mount his soap box, roar with indignation, and threaten legal action.
