      There is an obsessed with going to university - yes education is excellent but to end up in so much debt at such a young age is awful.

      Especially the stoopid requirement for so many “entry” level corporate roles that demand a degree, despite the role never using any skills from that degree. Recruitment seems to think having a degree automatically means a person with a degree will be the best hire.

      And trades - they are overshadowed because having a degree seems to be a better route career wise.
