Non-graduates are also suffering, yes. Did I imply they deserved to suffer? If I did that's not the intention. However, a degree usually requires hard work (being born wealthy does not), and has been widely recognised as the best legal route out of poverty for decades.

If even the best legal route is failing en masse, then we are screwed.
