This is real and it still is real, these positions don't pay over 200k for a 4 year degree because there is an abundance.
>I was to play a part in the devaluation of engineering labor by helping supply exceed demand, thereby allowing company owners to commodify software labor to ultimately pay wages proportional to hours worked rather than offering a share in company ownership, which allows for compensation proportional to company success.
Wow slippery slope fallacy. The medical field has no commodity workers and they aren't given ownership.
Anyway, seems like an axe to grind rather than the reality of things.
