And what would one do with all these academics? They simply push non-academics out of their jobs. Hey, when I can have a doctor flip my burgers, why should I take one who can barely read? You think all these academics will help the country if they don't find an adequate job where they can pay back their student loans?

Problem is that educations below academic level will be considered "inadequate" and "worthless". If the trend continues like this, even the cleaning folks in the newspapers will need a literature degree. And kids who want to learn some honest trade will not find a training position because they were only mediocre pupils and thus finished school with a less-than-desirable degree.
