BJF: We need an overall strategy to get jobs Strategy would include making Columbia a more attractive place to live to as a strategy of jobs recruitment, economic development Comments re article 76534 Stephen D Collins: Jobs need to be the top priority By Billy Joe Fudge Personal Commentary I could not agree more with Stephen Collins that our community needs local jobs and we need good ones, too. However, making jobs a priority or making new sidewalks a priority just out of the blue will not bring either into reality. What we need is a strategy, a modus operandi if you will. I spent 30 years of my life performing wildfire suppression and studying the science of fire behavior and teaching wildfire suppression techniques. Every successful and safe fire suppression effort begins with a strategy based upon current and expected fire behavior and then the basic strategy is tweaked as conditions warrant. I submit to you, Stephen, that every successful venture begins with the development of a well thought out strategy. Then and only then will all the team members know their areas of responsibility and can perform the tasks necessary to guarantee the success of the venture. We should be encouraging our elected officials, business leaders and fellow citizens to come together in a spirit of non-partisan cooperation to establish a strategy and an organizational vehicle through which we all can focus our energy, ideas, talents and fundraising efforts upon making our community a model for the 21st century. - BJF This story was posted on 2015-07-21 02:52:40
