Hey, look! Some libertopian think tank has ranked the states in terms of competitiveness (whatever that means), and guess what two states are not so competitive!
The eighth annual competitiveness report from the Beacon Hill Institute, a free-market think tank based at Suffolk University in Boston, ranked Pennsylvania 39th out of the 50 U.S. states and New Jersey 42nd. Delaware was ranked 19th.
Massachusetts came in at the top of the list, while Mississippi was 50th.
Researchers preparing the study looked at areas such as security, government and fiscal policy, environmental policy, human resources, technology and “business incubation.”
Oh no what will we do Pennsylvania has ranked low in a survey?! It turns out, though, the state scored well in “technology.” So, um, yeah, we have that going for us.
