Robinson Millətlər niyə tənəzzül edir 95 Bu ölkələrdə, güman ki, çox sayda potensial Bill Geytslər və bir, ya da iki Albert Eynşteyn var, amma onlar təhsil ala bilmədiyi və həyatda öz yerlərini tapmadığı üçün əkinçiliklə məşğul olmağa, ya da hərbi xidmətə getməyə məcburdurlar. There are probably many a potential Bill Gates and one or two Albert Einsteins in these countries, but they are forced to farm or join the military because they cannot get an education and find their place in life.
