Abstract: | The relation of business and government in the USA is discussed through some actual cases. The major trends are as follows: Business-government partnerships do not involve government control over business, just some helpful federal assistance; Government action will be more fair and effective than unplanned competition in the marketplace; While past bailouts may have upset the sensibilities of supporters of competitive enterprise, results prove that they work; Foreign business partnerships work well. There is an economic policy that can improve the performance of American industry - creating an environment that fosters competitiveness. Its ingredients: reduce budget deficits, keep the tax system stable for a while, etc. |
