I'll tell you one thing Hueyone about China's government, when it comes to stock options, the United States business and investor community AND Chinese government are on the same side. Chinese government just announced a plan to get their unemployed people working through a stock option plan. I am not kidding. Their government is smart, smart, smart. Meanwhile, what is our government doing? Please get more current on China's policies. Otherwise you become a drag on our competitive system here, by promoting legislation that's hurtful to USA businesses. () You are failing to distinguish what it structurally means to be competitive. "do you have any evidence" Rutgers I believe is the school that has this. It was in the news. An East coast school did the data compilation and study. RE: "I am under the distinct impression that the boom in hi tech activity in those countries is tied to having a well educated, low cost IT workforce, not to having more favorable stock option policies." And how the hell do you pay people less in the USA without giving them the extra gift-of-life stock options? And why aren't we creating more well-educated people and getting people to the next level, so we have more innovators to start companies to get some of the unemployed folks working? We only have 900 NSF students here, meanwhile India's IIT cranks out 2,000 per year and China cranks out goodness-knows-how-many on the same caliber. We are at least FOUR TIMES behind on NSF grants than India and China together. The only way to protect the middle-class wage earners, and maintain our entire country's spending level, is to quicken their entry into being investors. By getting more people into investor class, they'll get over the fence. Everyone in America should be an investor, so they are not under the constant wage assaults that will ensue as we bring billions of people online into the middle-class to compete with their jobs. Every job should come attached with options so they get into the investor class. Are you an investor in INTC? Regards, Amy J () And no, I'm not going to dig for that link, because you didn't inform rkal that it's rude to make a personal attack in the post he asked for the link. Please remove any appearance of an entitlement by proactively looking for it - it's out there. All of us need to get rid of any sense of entitlement.

"A national data bank about overseas students and talented professionals will be established to streamline information and approaches for overseas students to return, the minister disclosed. Zhang urged local authorities to follow related policies and measures toward the returnees, ensuring national treatments for applying to the government, securing scientific research funding, enjoying social insurance, sending their children to school and buying housing. The Chinese Government, Zhang promised, "will also speed up construction of industrial parks for the returned overseas students and support them to set up their own enterprises and run businesses.'' To date, the Chinese Government has established more than 70 industrial parks for returned overseas students to start businesses. " Also from People's Daily: The Zhongguancun Science Park in northwestern Beijing, known as China's "Silicon Valley", is China's most important base of information industry. According to Liu Zhihua, deputy mayor of Beijing and director of the ZCP administration, entrepreneurs will take part in the management of the (Science) park in three ways. First, one or two entrepreneurs will join the park's leading group in charge of policy making. Second, 15 entrepreneurs will become members of the park's administrative committee. Third, a committee of entrepreneurs will be established to represent the enterprises' interests. "This decision aims to allow enterprises to play a greater role in the government's management, which is an important part of the reform of the administrative system, " said Liu. english.peopledaily.com.cn
