“Frankly, I’m hoping we’ll see the light and put less in savings and invest more in education. We need to put this money to work in workforce development and think of education in terms of kindergarten through grade 16 and not just K-12.”
-Robert Dauffenbach, Director of the Center for Economic and Management Research at the University of Oklahoma. [Journal Record]
