I wonder if that's really true. I was done with University 9 years ago and before that I was working with cleaning public toilets, making sausages, heating and plumbing, in a kindergarden, web-frontend developer. After that I was working as a programmer and manager in the car industry. I understand that there are less jobs like that but the likelihood to step up and get a nicer job is real.
But I have to add that I didn't have to spent money on the University itself because I went to University in Sweden. And I didn't get any loans to pay back because I was working in my free time.
Yeah the North American higher education industrial complex is a scam. To the point that a lot of the better paying jobs (doctor, nurse, etc.) include having requirements to pay the school to work for a time without getting paid AND they forbid you from having an additional job at the same time, it sure seems to me like they are trying to make sure that "lower class" people never get in those kinds of jobs. Unless your parents are rich, you aren't going to be able to do that.
