Capitalists have historically needed liberal universities in order to reproduce, both as asset managers and as propagandists. The modern turn towards “AI can do everything” is a real vulnerability in the material working of the system. The Professional Managerial Class has been a major pillar of modern capital since the Cold War Era. Dissolving it to save a few bucks is a serious blunder.
Hm wonder why. Like the capitalists want “uneducated” masses they can pay the the bare minimum.

Only question is who steps up to take advantage.
