    not saying international students arent getting fleeced(because they are), but education in the developed world is a problem everywhere due to lack of jobs(that is there are more people of higher education than there are jobs that need their skillset to fill). This includes China.

    I see it as if youre gping to potentially get fleeced, might as well not pay exhorbitantly more than at home. (sorta similar to goong to school in state vs out of state)

      yeah I totally agree with you. That’s a better of putting it. I just despise the international student racket western countries do so I lose a lot of nuance. I mean its just capitalism right. Turning something like education into a purely financial endeavor but I still don’t like it.
