If we wish our state's growth to continue then our future will increasingly be with industries that require a highly skilled and technically proficient workforce.
If the euro zone doesn't come up with a comprehensive vision of its own future you'll have a whole range of nationalist xenophobic and extreme movements increasing across the European Union.
