Degrees are nothing but pretty pieces of paper that you buy for yourself (the college/Uni fees) and certainly don't reflect an individuals intelligence. Especially not in Rollo's case.........
You can't "buy" a degree, and that is why they have value to employers. A degree is evidence you can complete long complex projects, have learned a baseline level of knowledge in language, social sciences, math, science, plus more focused study in your discipline of choice.
Anyone who completes any 4 year degree at an accredited college has more knowledge of these areas of study than anyone who does not.
You can keep yelling about how it's meaningless all you want, but the world of employers disagrees with you, and that is all that matters.
How about trying to post some evidence employers are requiring less education these days, or that people without degrees earn more on average?
Won't hold my breath waiting for some actual evidence from a reliable source, feel free to keep posting "That book learnin' don't mean nothin'!".
