Step side student loans: the Lambda School is the first school to equitize human labor as a business model.
Based in California, the school teaches information technology skills online and charges zero tuition, according to Bloomberg. In fact, it even offers select students a stipend as they attend. The school's website describes it as a school that "trains people online to be software engineers at no up-front cost."
But as always, there is a catch: what The Lambda School does ask for, is for students to pay back 17% of their income from the first two years of working, if their earnings exceed $50,000 per year. The school caps a student's maximum payment at $30,000 and those who don't earn $50,000 per year aren't required to pay anything. Students also have the option of a "traditional" schooling arrangement where they pay $20,000 upfront and get to keep their future income (after the government takes its cut, of course).

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
