Re: Migration from Mainframe to othre platforms - the othe bell?

Training employees works when the expectation by both employers and
employees is for career employees. Both sides need to favor the long
term over the short term.


Training a workplace works when expectation by both tax-payers and
tax-beneficiaries is long term. When politicians and voters are more
concerned with the near term, big deficits are preferred over
preparing the next generation.

It's not just mainframe users that are concerned only with now.
