[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]China is going to conquer us in 20 years. I wonder if they’re “waking up their kids’ brains” with coloring and simple multiplication in 5th grade. Or 3rd grade. [/quote] Yes, our children are going to have no chance at all those cell phone assembly jobs that Chinese factory workers use their 5th grade calculus skills for. [/quote] Those jobs likely won't be in China in 20 years, just like those jobs today aren't in Japan and Korea. But if you think Chinese scientists and researchers aren't going to be dominant in the coming decades, you aren't paying attention.[/quote] Does it matter who makes the scientific advances? We are one world.[/quote]
