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.

And you sound very sanctimonious, it's ok for you to bleat about the yoof and their perceived flaws but you have no idea of the issues they face today that past generations didn't have to deal with. There is much greater pressure now due to increased financial and economic changes.
Who reaps the rewards of education?....Society! The economy
It's dearer now to rent than buy, and who can survive on apprentice wages.. do you know what apprenticeships pay?
I'm sorry but as usual you post just smacks of an 'I'm alright jack' mentality you haven't given on thought to the changing educational or employment structures in the UK it's just one long bleat void of any logic or reason.
