IT Students Contract Out Coursework To India
An anonymous reader writes "Students studying computing in the UK and US are outsourcing their university coursework to graduates in India and Romania. Work is being contracted out for as little as £5 on contract coding websites usually used by businesses. Students are outsourcing everything from simple coursework to full blown final year dissertations. It's causing a major headache for lecturers who say it is almost impossible to detect." The irony, of course, is that if they actually get jobs in the sector, this will be how they actually work anyway.
Um ... whoosh?!?!

It is also much easier to pollute when you are sending that pollution into government-owned property, and the government does not care what happens to that property. If all property were privately-owned, it would be much more difficult for you to pollute without facing consequences from your neighbors.
