Abstract

What do we need to assure U.S. competitiveness? Participants in the current debate on that question tend to talk as though the economic policies and world competitiveness of U.S. industry were somehow separate when, in fact, world competitiveness is where the economic policies of the nation finally get tested. The crying need is to tie economic policy to business competitiveness, and not treat them like strangers.
