This entire thing is building up a cheap labor loop, basically, that's going to get students to get a very baseline level of understanding of knowledge of I can count to five with these fingers.

And then you can teach and you can get your 21 bucks an hour as we take the other $79 from it.

And that to me is like abhorrent.

And you realize, okay, well, why is this on 60 Minutes?

They blew it wide open.

Well, that's the thing.

Yeah.

You would think, right?

Maybe two years ago or five years ago, they would have blown it wide open.

But no, this was an infomercial.

This was a pure infomercial because apparently a new CEO was announced.

The CEO is this guy, Hadi Partovi, and he is the founder of Code.org.

And they've also got Mark Cuban now.

And they've got the CEO of Uber involved as well.

And they just want to make money.

And so this was an ad.

60 Minutes just ran an infomercial.

They had no other piano teachers.

They had no other piano teachers.

pedagogy experts they didn't present any other versions of what teaching is like it was just like oh this is this brand new fantastic way there's going to be schools available all over the country go sign up for it just and again you can teach however you want to teach but as soon as you start using students as your labor force that to me is inexcusable that's so depressing
