Yesterday, I finally figured out why I grew up around such a hate on for college degrees. There’s a class element; if someone goes to college, it’s assumed they have more money to do it, and will also have more money in the future as a result, unlike a poor person who loses because they lose because they’re losing. And to a conservative, who sees everything as a moral issue, if someone benefits despite something that wrong, they (not societal inequalities) are obviously evil.
