More on personal statements

Well, I have been exploring this ethical question even more. Additional information reveals that ghost writing personal statements is a booming business. There are internet sites that will help high school students write for college applications, college students write for graduate and professional schools and medical students write for residencies and residents write for fellowships. How is it possible that we as a society have reached this point - ghost writing personal statements. How can we stop this? Should we even try to stop this from occuring? Just being rhetorical, but if anyone has comments they are welcome as always. JTE.
