Ah yes the classic “work wherever you want and if you get a job in the field you got a free education for you pay up to $30,000, if not you don’t pay anything” indentured servitudehttps://twitter.com/spmurrayzzz/status/1016021475021721600 …

You're strawman'ing this argument which I'm not making re:traditional higher ed tracks. I didn't go that route either.

You’re saying it’s indentured servitude which it’s not; it’s better than a loan in every way, and we have 100% free classes if you want to figure out if it’s right for you.
-
Again, strawman'ing an argument I'm not making. Show me where I noted the incumbent lending cartels are the better approach?
-
Your argument was that this is indentured servitude. My argument is that that’s an insane argument.
-
You are forced, by fiat, to pay a percentage of your per annum salary if you choose to enter the industry, Its certainly not comparable to the indentured servitude of colonial America, but that would be patently illegal in a modern civil liberty context. Its a spin job.
-
So in other words it’s not indentured servitude at all... Agreeing to pay a capped percentage of income if that income falls within certain bounds for two years isn’t even vaguely similar to indentured servitude.
-
You're making a semantic argument whereas I'm making a principled one.
-
Based on what principle? That paying a percentage of salary is inherently bad?
