Not just that, but it's a way to look down on those jobs. Why can't a truck driver have a formal education in arts or humanities? Why is learning something that you don't use in a job a bad thing? I mean what 18 year old knows what they want to do for the rest of their life?

It's about preserving generational wealth and limiting competition. And when certain politicians rely on their base being dumb as shit, it's an added perk.
