Politics And Printing

Still, Wilson is better off than some government in-plants in that his 66-employee operation is self-supporting. It buys equipment with the money it makes selling printing.

His in-plant may see a jump in print production now that the new finance director has mandated that all printing must go through Wilson's department. This means Wilson will determine whether to print jobs in-house or send them out. This will save money for the state, Wilson notes, but it has a downside: People resent being told what to do.
