Amigo! I recall kids on TV programs in 1968. They wanted to be Nuclear engineers. Aeronautic engineers.

Ask anyone then, and no one wanted to be a civil engineer. That would mean cement, dust noisy machines and lots of peones to work under you.

I believe it was all part of the Brazil big step forward called the Brazilian miracle from the mid 60s to mid 70s.

Young people have that confidence that comes out of being clueless and perhaps that is the norm. But I was never one of them.

I joked that if would enter an university would be to changes bulbs or something like this.

Concerning China the post graduates will be had for a few dollars a truck load because there will so many of them.

So westerners should be the ones worried about. Because they will never ever be able to compete again.

A Comprehensive look into the subjects issues, which is missing from most posts....this is a keeper, clues abound within, eventually useful for post fact analysis, we benefit from the predictions made throughout.

There is an old expression that comes to mind...

When you dont know where your going, any road will take you there.
