If you want to enrich your soul, find meaning, etc, etc, nobody is saying it is a bad thing. Like any enterprise besides being a government, it has to be able to pay for itself first and foremost. Education is a tool like anything else. Once it can pay back what was put in financially, the rest is up for debate as to which path to take.
