Answer to Question 1

Some experts argue that government bureaucrats cannot perfectly identify the right industries to favor under such a policy.

Answer to Question 2

The opportunity cost of a good is the value of what is given up to get the good. Opportunity cost acknowledges that a country should also consider how its efforts are best spent. While a country may be absolutely more productive than another country, it must consider that productivity relative to other things that the country could be producing.
