Too much forced analogy. This one is just plain out of context. Even people dont want to be educated in public, that does not translate who do the job doesn't get paid.
- gabeytani 9y agoYeah...Baidu/Tencent/Alibaba pays engineers REALLY WELL, comparing to the local standard. Software engineering are already the best paid job category[1], outpacing finance, for Chinese university graduates, as the best profession to go to. I would say that is not the case here in US, where engineers are well paid, but the still far from the envy of everyone, which would be lawyers and doctors. 1. http://www.chinanews.com/sh/2016/05-16/7871331.shtml http://www.chinanews.com/sh/2016/05-16/7871331.shtml (in Chinese though) Side notes: It is pretty interesting to read those articles try to analyze Chinese or East Asian people in general as they are machines from the same factory tagged with serial number. I cannot see how that could give you really insightful conclusions that generalize to 1.4 Billion people.
