I think the tuition fee is reasonable. It’s the interest. Let’s define the problem. Basically, usary.

9$ an hour is also pretty bad for an adult.

I was making that sweeping the floor in factory after school when I was 14 (must be like 15 years ago). Of course I live in Denmark.

(Not that I think tuition is a good idea, but it's not necessarily the problem).

The fee would be ok if the actual education was 2100 hours. But in actuality half of it is pay-to-apprentice and much of that is sitting doing nothing just to fill hours.
