Utah (and Mormons) Not Good For Business?

Interesting article on the perception of Utah to the outside world. In a 150+ years of Utah history it still seems that Utah can't overcome its perception of being unaccepting of the "gentile" world. Is this an inditement on the "Utah Mormons" or is this another attempt to paint the LDS population as unfamilar and "weird"?

Does that really matter though? If I were to go to Utah and it had a bunch of relocated loons from California, it just wouldn't feel the same. The Salt Lake Valley is Zion, why would we want the world to intrude? Utah doesn't need to be a capitalist haven for the world.

Salt Lake Valley Zion? Where are they serving the Utah kool aid these days?

Isn't half or more of SLC non-lds now anyway? I think SLC is already a bunch of relocated loons from California.
