I'd focus on more labor-intensive (and less import-intensive) technology, but the people of the country should be the ones to decide this kind of thing. My main point was that the UN was going in the wrong direction to create jobs in a situation where jobs are sorely needed. Maybe the UN should just leave them alone on this issue. some city in Brazil (I believe) pays its citizens to pick up garbage, etc. There's one way to go. And kids should be paid to go to school (for the elementary grades, at least). -- Jim Devine / "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti."
