Yep nope. When you compare people qualified for entering PhD programs (e.g., CS graduates), and the outcome of joining the PhD program vs not, there is clear wage suppression. You cannot argue that the market is right to dissuade this activity, because the people who do go into PhDs are responsible for a disproportionate amount of economic advances. If you care about economic impact, you should be increasing funding, not eating the seed corn. And as my above post, it seems you are either unaware of what R&D does and who does it, or are effectively performing the work of a paid Russian troll.
