sounds like the socioeconomic changes in India will be the most radical since Japan's postwar generation.

the country's annual surge of 1.5 million English-speaking university graduates

who are on average much smarter than their lazy, overpaid American counterparts. 1.5 million a year is a big number. that's 22.5 million workers in the next decade and a half--and that's just the influx of new grads. it seems that they, combined with the existing working age population, could replace well in excess of the 3 million US white collar jobs Forrester is predicting over the next 15 years.

perhaps by 2010, US government jobs will be the most sought-after, since they will be the only ones secured by protectionists.

can we expect Anglophonic countries to have lower inflation rates than the rest of the (non-English-speaking) industrialized world over the next couple decades thanks to this huge windfall of low-paid talent?
