Why can’t the U.S. educational system generate the highest test scores AND be the best at fostering leadership/innovation? These are not mutually exclusive skills.

US’s competitive advantage is the draw of its Ivy-League Universities – if it weren’t for them, I guess these so-called robots would have been just as gladly ‘innovating’ in their home countries.

Now my children are born and raised in top public school in Los Angeles. I’m deeply concerned that with all the money myself, my husband, city, state, federal put into to educae 1 child in Los Angeles, California, she won’t get same quality of education as much as I obtained from a 2nd tier city in China 20 years ago. China, definitely spends way less money in educating the mass. Even though its true that a lot of them are memorization, focused on math, engineering. However, I do wonder isn’t that kind of skill set future job markets in developed countries are asking for. All the jobs in the future will require more skilled workers. If it’s unskilled, how can we compete with countries that’s poor, abundant of unskilled labor who require much much lower cost-living standard? Outsourcing will become inevitable. Balancing outsourcing with national protectionism is necessary, but not going to last forever. Everything eventually comes down to economy. Simple as that – everybody wants to live a better life. While I worry about myself and my neighbors of losing jobs, or not getting a good job, I also wish the best for the kids in every poor village in china to be able to get out of slum, to go to cities, to get a bette job than their parents, and to leave poverty behind. The kids in those poor villages in China know to get there, it’s through education. Again, simple as that – study hard, work hard, they can have a better life. I don’t know if every kid in Amercian understands it, because little by little, education has become an entitlement here. So it’s not about what we should learn in school, it’s about set the right motive and purpose for education, as for an individual, and for a country as whole. 我是一个中国母亲，我在北京大学完成学士学位后移民美国继续就读于美国顶级大学。现在我的孩子们出生在洛杉矶并就学于顶级公立学校。我深刻的体会到我自己、我丈夫、市、州、联邦的钱投入到教育一个在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶市的孩子，这个孩子不会获得差不多20年前我在中国一个二线城市所获得的相同质量的教育。的确，中国花了极少的钱但有教育质量。虽然他们很多人是死记硬背,集中在数学、工程学上学习是事实。但是，我不认为这样学习的技能符合未来发达国家市场所工作技能的需要。
未来所有的工作将需要更多的技术工人。如果将来的工作是无技术要求的,我们如何与贫穷国家的人们竞争,因为这些国家充足的非技术性劳动力仅需要极其低成本的生活标准，不是吗? 工作外包将不可避免。国家用贸易保护来平衡工作外包所造成的贸易差额是必要的, 但不会永远这样下去。一切最终归结为经济。很简单-每个人都希望过上更好的生活。在中国，当我担心我自己或者我的左邻右舍失去工作,或者没有得到一份好工作, 我也希望把孩子们从贫穷农村送到城市中去，让他们找到比他们父母好的工作，摆脱贫穷。
那些中国贫穷农村出身的可怜的孩子们知道如何去城市，那就是通过读书。
再次,简单的说—努力学习,努力工作,他们才会有一个更好的生活。
我不知道是否美国的孩子能理解我说的这些, 因为渐渐地, 接受教育在美国已经成为一种权利。所以这不是说我们应该在学校学什么,而是教育作为一个个体,一个国家的整体，应该给孩子建立正确的学习动力和目的。 •

It’s simple matter of culture. In Asian cultures, if you are a student you are suppose to be the best student you can be. None of these nonsense about being a nerd or teacher’s pet, for being good at your schoolworks. 文化差异造就了文中所说的一切。在亚洲文化中,如果你是一个学生,你会想成会最好的学生。文中纯粹胡说八道，想要得到优秀的课业，学生只会成为一个书呆子或老师的宠物。

In my interaction with southeastern Asia workers within my company, I am not surprised they outscore US students in anything. US students are currently among the laziest and weak willed world wide, but the asia business professional is still very lacking in attention to detail and ownership of their part of the big picture. They are barely worth the effort to guide them through processes and have no idea of how to “think through” a problem . Life doesnt always play by rules or follow strict doctrine and they simple have a tough time adjusting to that. • 在我公司，我和东南亚工人们有接触，这些工作让我一点也不奇怪,他们在所有事情上胜过我们学生。目前在我们的学生当前是全世界最懒的和最任性的学生，但同时亚洲的商务人员还很缺乏对细节的关注和大局观。他们需付出很大努力来得到指引去完成工作，而且他们不思考如何解决问题。生活并是不要墨守成规，需要教条主义，他们有一段艰难的时间去调整。

Ah, yes: superiority. Let’s see – Hitler’s Aryan minions were superior, seeds of a master race. The USSR represented the superiority of socialism (so did Li Na, ha!). Certainly North Korea tells itself no end of fantasies about the superior and divine existence it has as a result of the great Kims. And the Japanese were superior, at least to the dogs in the rest of Asia. Yes, superiority: it has such a glorious past of predicting exactly who will end up on top. • 啊,是的:优秀。让我们看看——希特勒所代表的雅利安人是优秀的, 是一个伟大的种族。苏联社会主义的优越性的代表，谁呢？是的，李娜，哈哈！朝鲜当然还在无止境的幻想着自己种族的优秀， “金”氏这个姓氏成为了一个神圣的存在。还有，日本鬼子也曾今是优秀的，在亚洲其它国家中他堕落了。是的:优秀，小日本辉煌的过去不正好预示了最终会是哪个国家站在世界顶峰。
