You have no idea how much cash, gold, etc. is stashed in this state, whether by government or by private organizations. The Mormon church dumped billions into the economy during the crash to uphold their real estate values. There was no economic downturn in this state where certain control groups are concerned. Massive projects are in the works and there hasn't been the slightest blip in development. The news and the politicians will say whatever it takes to keep the fed money coming in... or complain about it. Here, it's truth that's scarce.
