Fake news

Only 6.7% of the world holds a bachelors degree or equivalent. In USA I think its like 25%.

It's 39% of millennials already and most of them aren't even 30 yet....with so many going to school in their later 20's these days...I'm telling you its going to be higher.

59% have already done some college.

Gen Z will be even more.

The reason is not college downgrading entirely...its actually mostly about the fact that no one can get a job that pays well and they think (sometimes correctly) this will help.

Edit: While we don't talk about this as much in America as in Europe -- one of the best things to do with a degree is take it abroad where only 3% of the population has a U.S. quality degree.
