At some point we need to decide which we value more: attractiveness to CEOs or the happiness and healthiness of hundreds of millions of regular, everyday people. I think it's reasonable to give up any pretensions at capturing the former if it ultimately benefits the latter. It's OK to not be the bestest country evar for business if it means people are housed and fed and have access to education and healthcare.

Why does it have to be an either/or?

Because a lot of times one side's interests will be completely against the other.
