I agree that people who went to college are on the whole better at critical thinking, but I don't think that path is for everyone. If going to college becomes the easiest path for slackers then they will go to college but they will not benefit much, and will change the atmosphere to where slacker pranks rule because the practitioners outnumber everyone else. So it was in high school and I see no reason it wouldn't be that way.

Take, for example, Israel which for both political and altruistic reasons has made religious study the easiest path. One quarter of the country's population is now chanting old phrases in the corner.
