Barriers To Economic Growth
AUSTIN — Over-regulation re-

Texas, according to survey results
released recently by the National
Federation of Independent Busi-
ness. But entrepreneurs are feel-
ing almost as pinched by a shortage
of qualified workers.
The survey of small-business
owners throughout the state found
22 percent identified “regulations”
as the greatest hinderance to
growth. “Finding qualified work-
ers” and “liability insurance costs”
scored a virtual tie for second most

1,284 responders.
The cost of workers’ compensa-

taxes, 16 percent to 12 percent, for
the fourth place ranking, while nine
percent identified health insurance
costs as their biggest problem.

WHITNEY - The Whitney Church
of the Nazarene is planning a church-
wide rummage sale Friday and Sat-
urday, March 6-7, from 8 am. to 5 p.m
at the church fellowship hall.
Included in the large selection of
items will be clothing, housewares,
furniture, wood crafts, and baked
goods. Lunch will also be served.
Money raised will go to the church’s
building fund. The church is located
at 1105 North Brazos (Farm Road
933) in Whitney.
“This will be a time of food, fellow-
ship, sharing, and prayer,” said Bro.

All “men of promise” are welcome.

“the shortage of qualified labor is
the hottest item on the chart today.
It’s number tow, with a bullet.”
Small-business owners ranked
worker’s compensation, liability,
and health insurance costs as
greater problems in a similar sur-

“To a great extent, small busi-
ness has become a victim of its own
success,” Howden said. “Having
led the state’s economic recovery
by creating more than a million
new jobs since 1990, they’ve drawn
down the labor pool.”
