how about people that are forced to contribute?

Again I say that it is that excessive bloat that is the problem, not that education (or even literature specifically) does not contribute to society in meaningful ways. I expect we would find the same excess if we allowed K-12 to manage (and bill us) similarly.
you’re still not making an argument for the essential nature of college, which is a fairly significant prior if hoping to spend trillions of dollars establishing a new life-long entitlement to what you’re saying is a “social good.” to a humanities degree.

While I am a big fan of the proper training of surgeons, scientists, etc. I do also believe in the "social good" of humanities degrees. Maybe it's because I see that in history, the arts have always played a role in cultural evolution and enlightenment. To me, important.

problem with this line of thinking: 90% of college students are doing the minimum possible and not really learning
