Oh for Heaven’s Sake!
Internships are the way to get experience before getting a job.

The article and most of the comments below it miss the real point...Why is it the government's business what a company is willing to pay and a college student is willing to accept for a "summer job"?
We are in a rural area, we have to pay our interns if we expect any with potential to apply. We use our internships as a recruiting tool, as a way to get local kids who have gone off to Engineering schools interested in a job with us back in their hometown. It's much harder to lure candidates that don't have ties to the area.

Sorry Derek, but there are damn few CEO positions available to class of ‘12 graduates. I know interns have to do grunt work that CEOs don't, but that really is life. My guess is for most an internship will provide a much better future than starting out as a janitor.
My start was not as an intern but as a low paid (very low paid) apprentice.
So suck it up.
