The winners and the losers
However, more methamphetamine produced in Mexican "factories" has made its way into the United States, although federal officials say a spike in methamphetamine's street price and a reduction in drug purity suggests a meth "shortage." Overall, that is very good news.
• Loser: iProvo, the telecommunications boondoggle that already has taken huge chunks out of Provo's budget, continues to sputter. In January, the system saw a net increase of only 29 subscribers. Now, however, the city is heading into harder times as the economy slows down in general. Last year's $1.2 million sales tax subsidy can't continue. After this week's meeting of the city's Telecommunications Board, even Mayor Lewis Billings agreed the situation has to change.
