The best way to get money into the hands of people who are responsible for revitalizing the economy and who could extend it even to Appalachia is to get government out of the money-management business and turn more of it, along with greater responsibility for managing our lives, over to us. We are locked into a mentality that there is a limited amount of money to go around. Statist politicians exploit this fear. In Appalachia, if one wishes to raise all boats, it's not as simple as opening up new businesses. This isn't like planting corn.
Businesses think of such things.
Mr. Clinton's march through parts of Appalachia is not about solutions. It's about the Clinton legacy and trying to help Al Gore to succeed him.
