[quadrangle]

Ok, perfectly fair critique of the article. And I agree with your other points here. I guess it was about whether we talk about the article or about the real problems.

Regarding the article, the "I got a degree, why am I not wealthy?" nonsense is indeed the wrong thing to complain about if someone wants to talk about what's wrong with the system. College, especially the humanities, is a multilevel marketing scheme. And as with other such things, I still don't like victim-blaming. Someone getting into a pyramid scheme hoping to make it big is a nincompoop, but the real evil is the people pushing the scheme from the top more than than the suckers who cycle through the bottom rungs to keep the pyramid going.
