I bet you also have no problem with an SI charging your employer 4~8x the perm rate for your job for a 'consultant'(*) with similar or even lesser experience - yet the SI won't be paying NI & PAYE on that uplift...
(*) Been that consultant...
I remember at school being in the receiving end of people's envy, we were all going to University, I however, filled in a couple of application forms and attended some interviews and got sponsored. People were really upset that I was being paid to study (and a job guarantee on graduation), but totally failed to appreciate that their lack of funds was wholly down to them not filling out the relevant application forms...
