This article surprised me by how biased and bad it is. And although it claims the "myth" started in 2015, I started to hear about this (and I am from Brazil, not US even) around 2005 or so. I finished college around 2009, and know from personal experience, that the "politicians" the article is against, are saying the truth, I ended college with huge debts, didn't got any decent jobs, and right now I work in a field not related to what I learned in college, I finished paying the loans only last year, and will finally marry this year, and will live in a tiny cramped apartment with my wife, with no vehicle. The friends I had at high school, the ones that went to college, are in similar situations... But the ones that went to trade school, all of them own their own house, are married with kids, own multiple vehicles... So I have no idea where the idea that this stuff is a "myth" came from. And I am sorry of how much I belittled a friend in high school, when he said he would not go to college, and go learn welding and how to operate CNC machines... Back then all "adults" convinced me he was going to be low class and poor, and that I should aim to enter a pretigious university. That guy while I was still in college, had bought the motorcycle of his dreams. When I finished college, he was paying for his house. When I was strugglign to find jobs, in part because everyone wanted experience instead of education, and thus I was 5 years older with zero experience compared to my competitors (either 18 year old guys with lots of energy, or people same age as me, that skipped college but had 5 years of experience on the job), he was complaining of how many job offers he had to turn down...
