Jobs “created” in Colorado Springs in 2018 were apparently only one third of the number originally estimated. Are overly optimistic economic numbers steering our city off course? Are we too busy creating minimum wage jobs? Sales tax, jobs, and economic development decisions under the microscope in this episode.
