It seems to be the sort of ignorant drivel you can expect from Zero Hedge.
A while ago, a Master in Business Adminstration from the Havard Business School had two unique features.
It captured the highest starting salaries of any university degree, and was worth less than any other academic qualification five years later.
If you plot the salaries of people with academic degrees over time, they mostly go up, and go up faster  than those of people without academic degrees. People with advanced degrees tend to start higher and go up further.
It's a complicated subject, about John Larkin has fixed silly idea.
