<<3.33RMB per Dollar>>

... at that rate the chinese buy the world, and all its Big Macs, hand assembled by the Swiss and air couriered to Shanghai, and each will be driving a Range Rover, manufactured in downtown Tokyo !

... and every american will be farming, so as to supply the ingredients for the Big Macs, in which case your students will not need to complete university or hold a driver's license, unless they intend to work in ... Shanghai.
