The poster's main issue is not that people who didn't go to school are generally better than people who did, but that people who went to school aren't generally better than people who didn't. I.e., because of grade inflation and the trend to not make students do much work, people who went to school are just as likely to be lazy and stupid as people who didn't. A degree isn't a signal for anything anymore.
