... there is no reason for someone to make the claim higher education is the only avenue for the "less advantaged" to attain a higher level of living.
The real crime being done is forcing young people into higher education, and dump truck loads of debt, without giving them the space to examine their options.
There are definitely good arguments for young people choosing to not go to college in this day and age. The insane cost plus the indoctrination top that list.
So what percentage of 35yr olds without a bachelor's make more money than college graduates?
It has been proven for the last 2 generations that on average the more educated, the more you will make during your lifetime. Considerably more...like millions

UCSD:
"Start with A. The UC Board of Regents in 2020 scrapped standardized tests as an admissions requirement under the guise of promoting “equity.” The likely real reason: Blacks and Hispanics score lower on average on the SAT. Requiring applicants to submit standardized tests scores could also make it easier for critics to prove the university is providing racial preferences, which were prohibited by a 1996 voter referendum. The math-proficiency analysis suggests it may be doing so on the sly.
Amid a push to boost diversity and overall enrollment—and thus rake in more government student aid—UC San Diego admitted increasing numbers of unqualified applicants from low-income high schools: “In order to holistically admit a diverse and representative class, we need to admit students who may be at a higher risk of not succeeding,” the report says."
Insane...and even the Atlantic is calling it out
