Economic development leaders and public officials throughout the country are tending to the effects of a sour economy and huge state budget deficits when they would rather be creating quality jobs and new economy assets.

Thus, with long-term fiscal and economic health at stake, the 50-state race is on for advantages and leadership in science and technology.
