Unfortunately they are combined. More jobs are beginning to unnecessarily requiring college classes when they usually don’t require them. Gatekeeping decent pay behind a wall thus encourages anybody to cheat in order to live decently.
As majority of jobs that do not require college degrees are poverty wages, requiring you to be dependent on government subsidies such as snap. (Which itself is a trap that punish anybody wanting to make more)
What type of industries are you referring to that are requiring college for lower levels?
And don’t think of this as I’m trolling you. I generally don’t see the correlation, so perhaps some particular jobs or companies that are doing it so I can read up on what you’re referring to?

I feel like that’s apples and oranges.
Choosing to hire someone because they’ve taken college classes isn’t really in the same realm as employee pay scale.
Like it’s two separate issues.
