While this may not be the case with everyone of this age, it seems to me that a lot of people purchased a crappy education, and are now surprised to find themselves in debt with a worthless degree. As a 25 year old, I'm finding this is true of about half the people I left High School with.

Like buying almost anything, it's possible to pay a lot of money but still end up with something crap.

The real shame is that kids are not taught to think about education in the same way they they would consider the value of any other purchase.
