India is fucked

印度是失败的

Today's India has a huge under or ill-educated young population that does not have the skills to get the few good quality jobs that are around. This population is set to increase for next 2 decades at least before the net population stabilizes.

今天的印度有大量的在受或没有受过良好教育的年轻人口，他们没有技能去获得周围少数的优质工作。这一人口将在未来20年增加，至少在净人口稳定之前。

The BJP is banking on this support base - under or ill-educated young population. They can be easily manipulated, incited in the name of religion, caste or language. As long as BJP is successful in convincing the youth that "others" - minorities, secular, leftists etc. - are the cause of their lack of job opportunities etc., they will continue to win elections.

印度人民党正指望着这个支持基地——或者是受教育程度不高的年轻人。他们可以很容易被操纵，以宗教、种姓或语言的名义煽动。只要人民党成功地说服年轻人，“其他人”——少数族群，世俗，左派等——是他们缺乏就业机会的原因，他们将继续赢得选举。

So while piecemeal economic developments like demonetisation and GST might be significant to some educated members in the society, they will have no impact on the youth who have been rendered numb and unthinking with the opium of religious hatred coupled with a dismal jobless economy. Most likely, they will join the RSS' paramilitary brigades.

因此，虽然像废钞令和服务税这样零碎的经济发展可能对社会上一些受过教育的人有意义，但不会对那些因宗教仇恨和失业而变得麻木又不懂思考的年轻人产生影响。最有可能的是，他们将加入RSS的准军事部队。

shouldn't we be investing in primary and secondary education and bring out more skill full youth instead of teaching them plumbing when they grow up ?
Having a large workforce(youth) is good.
Having a large youth without proper skillset is a danger.

难道我们不该投资于中小学教育，在青春时期赋予更多技能，而不是在他们长大的时候教会他们管道工作吗？

拥有大量劳动力（年轻）是好事；拥有大量年轻的却没有恰当技能的劳动力却是一种危险。

Do you have any idea how much a good plumber earns these days ?

你知道一个好的管道工人这些天赚多少钱吗？

Do you have any idea that these well earning plumbers are only limited to posh areas of metro cities?
Ask what a plumber earns even a tier 1 town like Jaipur. Lets not even talk about tier 2 and 3 towns. Or villages, where all of India lives practically
This sub is filled with people extrapolating their immediate realities to the rest of the population which, frankly, doesnt look anything like them

你知道这些赚得很好的管道工人仅限于大都市的高档住宅区？

问一下一线城市如斋浦尔的管道工人赚多少。甚至不要说2~3线城市，或者几乎住着所有印度人的乡镇。

这个网站充满了将自己眼前的现实推及剩下的人，坦白讲，一点也不像他们。

That's because they're not skilled. They just wing it. They're not trained to follow safety standards and procedures.

那是因为他们不熟练，仅仅是临时应付。他们没有接受过安全标准和程序的培训。

They're not trained because in those villages and tier 2/3 cities, no one really cares about safety standards. When money is tight and you need to get work done, you look for the cheapest option.
It may not be the smart move, but its the only move some can afford.

他们没接受训练是因为在这些乡镇或者2~3线城市中没人真正在乎安全标准。资金紧张的时候，你想要完成工作，你就得找最便宜的选择。

这或许不是明智之举，但是唯一能付得起的行为。

Cops in UP found out that supplies for a schools midday meal scheme was redirected to a cow shelter. This is how much we care about education and well being of our kids.

UP的警察们发现，给一所学校供应午餐的计划被转移给一座牛棚。这就是我们对教育和孩子的关心程度。

why invest in both school eduction and teaching plumbing when you can do better with a better school eduction ?

如果你能接受更好的学校教育，为什么还要投资于学校教育和管道教学呢?

[–]TejasaK 27 points 19 hours ago
why invest in both school eduction and plumbing when you can do better with a better school eduction ?
Because society needs plumbers as much as it need your regular white collar IT guy ? Actually society needs plumbers more than it needs IT guys right now. There is a definite shortage of skilled plumbers.

因为社会需要管道工人，就像需要你正规白领IT男一样。实际上，比起IT男现在的社会更需要管道工人。熟练的管道工人明显缺乏。

No self respecting high caste Hindu will take such an untouchable job such as plumbing, swee, cleaning, cobbling, woodworking, Iron casting, or any other 3rd class job. That's what it is termed as, a 3rd class. Parents don't dream their kids to become one even after school education. They are forced to go for an education where they don't have any skills but are sent anyways.

没有自尊的高种姓的印度人会从事贱民工作，诸如管道、清扫、清洁、砌补、木工、铸铁或其他三等工作。这被称之为第三等。即使在学校教育之后，父母也不希望自己的孩子从事这一类工作。他们被迫接受教育，在那里他们没有任何技能，但却被送去了。
