Ouch - you sound very bitter. You don’t have to go to uni to get a well paid job or get a mortgage. Get an apprenticeship and when qualified you can earn enough to get a mortgage if you manage your money properly. Too many people today want it all at once and for free. Older generations saved and went without to own their own house - many today aren’t prepared to do that.
Why should those that don’t go to uni pay for those that do - who will reap the financial rewards and earn more than those that paid for it for them. Is that your idea of fair? Sounds pretty damn selfish to me.
