You're paying a third of what someone on the US federal minimum wage would make during that time (7.25 x 40hr/week x 20 weeks).

Edit: oh, I thought it was 2000 total, not per month.

Never mind then, though I do think this is would ideally be a government program.

I think you might have the math wrong there.

7.25 x 40 x 20 = $5800

we pay $10,000

Second, virtually all the work is not for any gain (it's purely instructional)
