The €1.45B pledge by the EU and the scary analysis is evidence that college education doesn't hold monopoly on knowing, nor on wisdom, political or economic intelligence... on bureaucratic excitement and getting enslaved by formalities perhaps.

But of course, nothing new, especially about contemporary academia. I have seen tutors who know all the books but do not know book, like people once thought mentors becoming jerks, and I have seen onetime idiots come round, take initiatives as if the prophesied return of Jesus Christ.

See the formation of the Gambia's 2016 coalition government for instance, where names that were thought unfit to be named in the same sentence with the choicest triumphed, fating the supposed intelligentsia to grief, unceasing anger, and denial, like: where the hell did we go wrong. I say the size of your ego and the arrogance thereof played you.
