It all depends on how well we prepare.That was one of the prospects presented by two international trade attorneys speaking at The Rotary Club of McMinnville and in a public radio WCPI 91.3 interview. Fortunately for hometown individuals and families, education and skill training needed to meet global competition is already available.Thad McBride, a partner at Bass, Berry & Sims PLC, and Samar Ali, of counsel with that law firm, addressed the Noon Rotary Club last Thursday.
