Utah's Economic Success Depends on Social Framework
The Washington County Commission has published a Strategic Economic Development Plan for 2018 to 2028. This plan places a primary emphasis on STEM education, technology entrepreneurship, affordable housing and inter-generational poverty. The social goals are necessarily interconnected with the economic goals. Utah companies are burdened with providing employee health-care benefits and educational benefits. The cost of this administrative burden has an impact on profitability.
