I thought this was a greatly ironic, (if somewhat amoral) idea and it shows the real 'magic of the marketplace' as RR put it. In so many ways.

Evidently, the more effluent US computer science students are contracting with other CS students and even professional programmers in other countries (where the costs of labor are lower) to do their homework assignments for them. Since class sizes are high and instructors don;t get to know individual students work styples, this cheating strategy carries little if any risk of discovery, and it offers a sort of ironic twist on the offshoring and outsourcing of US jobs overseas.

Now, if we could only shop around for the best deal, politician wise..  laugh without having to move our physical locations..

I wonder if there might be some kind of way to do that?
