Energizing the Economy through Education
Let me see - the trend is away from untrained, bootstrap learning you pick up in the field and towards a general education with specialized training to be an effective contributor in a 21st century economy.
I heard that same message from a young black fellow last night during some sort of acceptance speech - not sure I was paying much attention - but it sounds like the market has already decided he is right.
Not sure anyone has figured out yet that if we can have a robot navigate its way to Mars then land on the planet by itself - or have a car drive itself in traffic - we can probably get more robots to handle day to day of pump operations and have one of these eddycated engineers supervise 10 or more of these devices. Least wise that's what the boys at Bain Capital tell me.
