Below was taken from the Hamden Patch on line news source on June 10, 2014. CT is always first or second in the country in per capita income then why do half the people say they would leave given the chance and why is it ranked 45th worst state to live? Because it a false realty as is the stock market where the intervention of grotesque amounts of government money to float an appearance of prosperity is a joke and results in an anemic economy at best is sad. The only ones prospering form obama's economy are the rich and the poor. True unemployment is no better than it has been since 08. I believe that the amateur in office is getting exactly what he wants - it is ot like he didn't tell his intentions throughout his two campaigns, I for one am not surprised at the results.
"Rarely do Connecticut residents catch themselves saying, “At least we don’t live in Hawaii,” but that might be the case after perusing Money-Rates.com’s list of the Best and Worst States to Make a Living 2014.
Connecticut was ranked the fifth-worst state to make a living, with Rhode Island, Mississippi, New York and Hawaii the only states scoring worse.
The rankings were based a metric that weighed average salary, cost of living, employment rate and workplace conditions.
Connecticut fell nine places since last year’s list, Money-Rates reported, because of high costs of living, high unemployment and poor workplace conditions."
