Meanwhile there's a GAP between citizens and science and technology, society cannot advance... In this sense, EDUCATION is the way to bridge the gap between this areas... humanizing and sensitizing future researchers to commit them whit the good to the society, and to educate and bring up the general population for use the science and technology on mankind's profit.

Pues esta es la cultura con la que crecí. Seguramente toda mi familia ha opinado sobre la "fuga de cerebros" sólo dicen que el gobierno DEBE hacer algo pero aún así ninguno de ellos ha estudiado siquiera una licenciatura/ingeniería no conocen(ían) a alguien que se fue a otro país a estudiar. Igualmente hablan de ciencia como un factor en contra de las creeencias religiosas pero díficilmente que gracias a la investigación pueden usar celular, ver TV, tomar medicinas y hasta manejar un carro.
Esta misma cultura (me parece) es la responsable de que no se aprovechen las pocas medidas gubernamentales que aumentan la calidad de vida, caso concreto las Tarjetas EcoBus en que la gente prefiere seguir batallando pues sin haber usado un sencillo escanér afirman NO SIRVE y es díficl de utilizar.
Ni hablar, cada quien puede hacer su parte y si ni eso puedes hacer México estara perdido.

yo creo que el principal problema que la mayoria de los mexicanos es la ignorancia.... pues se prefiere creer en cosas de las artes oscuras... a lo que realmente esta probado y justificado cientificamente.... la ciencia ha a avansado de tal forma gracias a personas que han consagrado su vida a la investigacion y que gracias a ellos tenemos el mundo que conocemos actualmente y que a la mayoria de los mexicanos les seria dificil la existencia... gracias tambien a los grandes avanses medicos.... yo soy una pesona de creencias religiosas muy apegadas pero no por eso dejo de creer en la ciencia y aportar mi granito de arena... para que salgamos adelante..

First let's here a quote, this is about finding world peace but i really liked it "There is something more important than the method.. and that is believing in it" Masashi Kishimoto

I agree in someway.
A great problem i see in my peers is that we want to enjoy the benefits of a development but not develop in ourselves the abilities to obtain them. Furthermore people with no skills scale the hierarchy without knowing a thing... like Vicente Fox. Thus, the only way to enjoy development for Mexico is to increment it's debt. I think when putting all our efforts we won't see the change, mexico still needs at least 5 generations of intense work to surpass its bad habits.
In what i disagree is in this thought... who says the game we are playing of "development" is the correct one? i mean if an ethnic group reminds that does not have contact with capitalism, would it be prudent to inmerse it in all our vices?? Our way of living is too artificial, that is why we suffer, we follow the rules put by man, not by nature
