I agree, but there is things we can move towards, but some are more... radical solutions.

I think the Swiss do something where after a certain point in the education pipeline (Age 16?) they decide either university or vocational school.

I think the ratio is 20-80.

If the decision is made for you (via being evaluated by the institutions in charge of the students) it definitely would be filled with bribes and scandals where the rich try to subvert it.

But if that wasn't a problem I think it would definitely help university degrees "matter" again and it would be more feasible to make free for those who pursue it.

Again this requires a whole restructuring-- and would not see results for atleast a generation-- and red-lining would potentially have very visible effects on this depending on how its done.
