It's probably just a rounding error
150000 / year for fresh graduate versus 30000/year for fresh PhD student is not a rounding error.

Like how a country with 'Democratic' in its name is usually anything but: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/PeoplesRepublicOfTyran...

How to you end up making only 30000/year with a PhD in a subject where graduates make 150k? Even post-doc positions tend to pay more than that. Everybody I know that has a STEM PhD and went into industry earns a lot more than I do.

150K isn't anywhere near the stated "most programmers".
