This isn't a game so it's not about picking winners. It's about steering the economy so local businesses get an advantage over foreign entities.

By all means, have government get out of the way so the economy can get on with it.

I'm more in favour of tax incentivised encouragement, lowering the barriers to entry, and more so when there are proven benefits to the economy and society, and less in favour of government backed loans and direct cash injection.
