klaser, China is to be complemented, no be competed against. Anything that the Anglos produce can be consumed because they've got the English language. The Chinese have Chinese language. Anglo culture can be understood. Chinese culture is opaque and obscure. Language, culture and religion are all a burden. Not everything that China can produce can be ported across borders. It must be extremely tough for one Chinese to see he will be competing with other 50 million kids. It is akin to a kid playing football in Brazil and dream of reaching 22 National players when everyone plays football. Thus, Chinese parents are investing a lot on Chinese kids' education, not to compete with a kid in Nebraska, It is to compete with the boy down the street!. It will result in all that money invested in education was only because their parents wanted to give the kid a head start but ALL the parents were doing the same. Rememebr that a diploma is a positional good, its value is in its scarcity. In 20 years China will have a graduate in tourism working as a porter in a hotel. And banks will be hiring MBAs as cashiers.
