The paper discusses the development of Teflon® and its later economic importance to the general economy, and takes the position that state government's role is best left at that which creates a business-friendly environment into which businesses want to move. Innovation and funding are the two primary ingredients of technological advancement, and the relationship that has grown up between the private sector and the federal government is sufficient.
