I actually agree with just about everything you say, I see the problem with it as well. But since I don't see any other solution and lack the ability to change society on the fundamental level needed to solve this problem, then I feel like I "Have to play the game". Yes we don't know at all how it will turn out, but I at least think that I can't be worse of than if I hadn't gone to university.
