>> An MBA largely has value because it acts like a cult promoting the networking between MBA's. It's arguably a great hack to extract value from organizations as opposed to customers. I don't think this applies to the average MBA (full disclosure, I have an MBA). Most MBAs are just normal people who are just trying to do their job better. Having said that, I guess some grads of the "most elite" business schools do that cultish thing you're talking about, but I would argue it has less to do with having an MBA than being a member of that top school. Those people tend to be the most visible representatives of MBAs while only being a very small portion of all people with MBAs.
