See, I read stuff like this and I can tell you've never been outside of academia. You have no idea what it's like actually working versus going to school.
You're silly. I mean I have a state contract as a state employee with a salary.
I also worked full time throughout high school and undergrad, so that's a pretty laughable claim.
PhD students are the people that do the large majority of published science. You are literally saying that scientists don't do real work, btw.
