It is possible to make a good living doing some trades under some circumstances, which also applies to getting a university degree. There's no one size fits all approach. The characterization of it as a split between "lazy people who don't want to study" and vice versa is derived from the phenomenon of classism justifying itself as "meritocracy", where the university-gated high status professional class (that is, the bourgeoisie) wants to justify its class privileges (and class exploitation) as some kind of assortative natural order asserting itself

>>536608922My brother in law is a sparky and he's 47 and looks like a husky. All stumpy and hard, hearing is wrecked, has constant tinnitus, and his hands are all big and swollen. All he does in his free time is sleep. Meanwhile I have the hands of a young prince and have the flexibility of a cat because I have a white collar job and spend my free time gaming and masturbating while eating mcdonalds.
