You want ME to be grateful for the privilege of getting the experience of making YOU money for nothing in return? Screw YOU. No one is talking about making you

No one is talking about making you take an unpaid internship that you don't want. We're talking about whether Joe Q. Eagerbeaver should be prevented from taking an unpaid internship that he does want.
Whatever happened to treating people like mentally competent adults capable of making their own life decisions?

Eagerbeaver should be prevented from taking an unpaid internship that he does want. Yes, I agree, this isn't about me. I have the luxury to avoid unpaid internships, which not everyone does. There are situations where unpaid internships are good, and situations where they're bad. I'm arguing that the bad heavily outweighs the good. Whatever happened to treating people like mentally competent adults capable of making their own life decisions? Strawman. By that logic Ponzi schemes should be legal.
