“Utah is Boring!” Don’t Tell Them That’s Why the State Has Such a Good Economy

The economic outlook for Utah is good and it has been for a long time. The biggest problem is people keep finding out and moving here. This latest ranking isn’t going to help with that, and it also gives reasons why. It is because we are boring. 

Long Term Policies Give Long Term Results 

Here’s the good news. A think tank that looks at each state’s economic outlook and ranks them has placed Utah at the top. Even better, this is the 18th year in a row the beehive state has taken the honor. 

It is something to crow about which the governor and others have done. Unfortunately, the states near the bottom of the list are bound to hear about it. Expect more of those looking for better economic conditions to move to Utah. 

Keep Telling Others the State is Boring 

The perception of people outside of Utah is that the place is boresville. This is a good thing, and we should encourage this belief. According to the report, it is also the reason the state continues to do well. 

See, the elements that make conditions for a good economy are things like frugal spending, a business-friendly tax structure, and less toxicity in public forums. Zzzzz... Even saying those terms makes me want to take a nap.

Because of our boring nature we have ignored the flashier, right-now solutions, and dug into the basics. This bucks the trend of most politicians who go for hot topics that voters are emotional about, but don’t have a lot of real impact. 

So, tell everyone about how boring Utah is and skip the part about why it helps economically. Let’s ride this pony as long as we can until the quarter runs out.
