The number of doctoral graduates has grown steadily over recent decades, creating a

>massive imbalance between PhD holders and available academic positions.

New doctorate holders almost doubled between 1998 and 2017.

Also trouble in UK: A 2023 study of more than 4,500 PhD graduates in the United Kingdom found over two-thirds were employed outside academia, there was an instance of a stellar cartographer now doing a parking ticket job, but at least he wasnt unemployed. (he had a masters degree in spatial dynamics, it wasnt actually PhD)

Education or Academic titles mean practically nothing and the only reason why people will ever insult you is because they wasted their time getting one. Credentials are only important as far as needing licenses to be able to do things without glowies and police dickriding you. If you really sought after knowledge on your own and weren't niggercattle, you would figure things out on your own given enough work.

US college is mostly a scam unless it's STEM. Anything else you can literally learn in high school

college is a scam. you're paying to get a hand holding certificate saying you completed expensive high school's curriculum.
the real experience is from the work you put in so you might as well put that work toward something you really want to make.
it's a decent place to find something to do from exposure to more people and ideas but it's only you who can do the work.

it's like that with the centrally licensed network of doctors.
they require training and licensing.
in reality it's grooming pyramid scheme grifters in their multi level marketing scheme which they assert is totally legit and professional.
it's like the brahmins' infiltration to a company indicated here, except instead of a company these people infect your nation as parasites
