On Corporations: OpEd: Don't pick winners & losers? Picks "critical" sectors

Governors and politicians who constantly proclaim that "government should not pick winners and losers" are doing precisely that, and for good reason: Virtually every state is locked in head-to-head battle with other states for business sitting decisions. To survive such competition, state governments are forced to practice economic policy, whether they choose to admit it or not.

Governor Chris Christie's New Jersey Economic Development Authority favors specific "business sectors critical to the State's economy."
