Abstract

The Japanese import and develop the technology for an industry, protect it in the initial domestic phase, then turn to markets in developing and industrial nations. America has had the advantages of market size, natural resources, capital, technology and a capitalistic system, but must learn to compete on a global basis. The policy of protecting low-productivity industries as they become noncompetitive is self-defeating. Government regulations have been a major constraint on exports. The saving rate has been low. - Forrest McElhoe Jr
