"Education should not be market driven, it should be driven down a path toward wisdom."

Its not or people wouldn't borrow money for degrees that even a fast food clerk earns more money at.

If we think something is important, that's usually a good reason to have its provision mostly driven by the market.

You act as if the market is some strange alien imposition. Its largely just people making their own decisions for themselves instead of having those decisions imposed by an authority. You can hope that those are wise decisions. Obviously they won't always be that, but people tend to make wiser decisions for themselves than for others.
