Not even close RE: MBA. There is an insane glut of MBAs because of rational choice to go there where MBAs used to have a ton of opportunity. Then the economy crashed and now STEM fields are being mined for business intelligence / game theorists that can learn rudimentary business practices on the fly (or the company will pay for a night-time MBA).

The majority of people who struggle with getting high paying work after an MBA previously struggled with getting high paying work as a Stem graduate. Something like 40% of MBAs are engineers.
