Every time I read Tom Friedman's columns in The New York Times, I'm amazed by how insightful and pragmatic he is. Today's column is no exception, with this very prescient point about why "Average Is Over":
"There will always be change — new jobs, new products, new services. But the one thing we know for sure is that with each advance in globalization and the I.T. revolution, the best jobs will require workers to have more and better education to make themselves above average."
Read the whole column, especially the part about "E La Carte" and the Chinese factory that makes iPhone screens. As with most of Friedman's writing, you'll be fascinated and frightened at the same time.
