<p>Our world has become more and more materialistic.
There are few ‘pure’ things left. People choose majors to make money, not to fulfil their personal dreams. The universities are more readily to do medical research, especially cancer, than agricultural research so that they can receive more grants from the government.
I am totally disillusioned by our materialism yet it is an almighty swirlpool that nobody is able to escape. I wonder whether I was born in the right time.</p>
