The De-Paying of America: What to do about the accelerating conversion of paid jobs into unpaid ones.



Guess this person’s salary: He is Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine at the prestigious University of California, San Francisco. His salary is $0.


In recent years, I’ve observed an acceleration of jobs that have been converted from paid to unpaid or pittance-paid: jobs to internships, jobs to volunteer work, full-time well-paying secure jobs to temporary, unbenefitted contract work. 
My PsychologyToday.com article explores this a bit but, alas, doesn't propose solutions--because I can't think of any that seem realistic. Anyone care to suggest something? 
Perhaps it's better to post it on the PsychologyToday.com site than here---it gets more readers. HERE is the link.
