You had me up to that point.
What makes you say that?
I ask that, as a guy who has owned and operated many businesses in New Mexico, Was a pretty well known business consultant in New Mexico 20 years ago, and was the writer, co-producer and 'star' of the weekly New Mexico Business Report on the CBS affiliate in Albuquerque.
So, I have been in a position to be intimately familiar with the highs and the lows of the New Mexico business community for quite a while, and I have never seen an 'anti-business attitude' here any more (and probably less so) than anywhere else in the US in general.
Heck, even Richardson himself at least PRETENDS to be pro-business. That's how he conned even the normally conservative 'movers and shakers' into supporting him for Governor, twice.
They vote for anti-business candidates in election after election. Oh, yea, they go to McDonald’s, etc., but they have a distrust of successful business.
