Re: The Chinese... How do they do it?
I don't know much about the Chinese people but I always thought they were well up on technology, didn't they invent gunpowder? didn't archaeologists discover the remains of an electric battery thousands of years old, and they managed to keep the secret of making fine China hidden from the outside World. Maybe a succession of bad leadership and closed borders have kept the rest of the World unaware of the Country's abilities, they are a very clever race of people and I don't begrudge their present economical success, they have every right to be up there with the other big power and with the population and the cash they have now you don't see anybody shaking a stick at them, we need that kind of balance in the World, not all one sided as it was.Re: The Chinese...

Re: The Chinese... How do they do it?
What I was trying to get at there Bruce was that a new generation doesn't take a very long time to come about, I'm sure they have already started to come to terms with the problem, maybe they will or have relaxed the two children law, say if a child is born in nine months time then in 14 years time that child could start working (I did at 14) on the land in apart time learning capacity, food production will be a top priority so millions of farm workers will be required. In the ever growing industrial sector the workers will need someone to look after the kids, enter the older folks who do a great job of this all over the world, as Del Trotter says "Everyone's a winner", hopefully
