Los ingenieros no cabemos en Puerto Rico

Sí debe haber una forma de filtrar aun mas el talento. Subir requisitos, bajar cupo en instituciones educacionales, sacar mediocres de la industria, etc... Otra opción es irnos donde nuestra oferta haga juego con la demanda... Aunque sea fuera de la isla.

Sería ideal ayudar a PR echar pa'lante como ingeniero, pero este revolú es parte de tener la libertad de esoger lo que queremos estudiar. Hay paises donde solo se gradúa lo que la sociedad necesite. Haces algo que no te gusta necesariamente, pero todos van pa'lante siempre...

Pienso que las reglas de oferta y demanda aplican a las profesiones. Mucha oferta con poca demanda, baja el precio del producto, o el sueldo del profesional. Para mantener el precio del producto hay que ofrecerlo donde 'haga falta' o producir menos.
