I don't think every degree necessarily should be "well now I make more money for having it."
Sometimes education of some subjects should be good just for education's sake. [Hey, I have an interest in astronomy, I will go take some classes and learn astronomy!]. However, the cost has gotten to be too insane to justify that.
Yeah I totally agree. I was just throwing a random example.
I guess my point was, in the past often times people just sorta went to university just for.... ya know to give them a more well rounded education that wasn't technically career-practical. There can be value in that, it doesn't have to lead to a higher paying job.
For example, going to college to study classical literature or history or something. It can provide value, but it may not translate to a higher paying job which is a huge problem with the amount of people who go to college for a degree that will never pay them a penny and go broke doing so.
Even with the internet there is some value in it [for example you can get a pretty dang inaccurate and one sided view of history if you don't go on the right stuff on the internet.... but wait... schools are that way now too xD but I am talking in the ideal]
