Why do you think the current generation are so badly off? If they want to go, they go, and they don’t pay anything back if they stay on a salary deemed to have not been increased due to having a university education.
There are far more people going to uni these days than there were in my time.
All of this bleating about how bad it is for young people now is pathetic. A uni education is not even important any more for most careers. I have done pretty well for myself without one.

If you parents were so hard up you'd have got a decent grant if you were offered a place of course. Not the case now.
You seem to think the current generation are lazy and entitled, all the ones I know are neither of these things. And it is harder for the current generation in many ways. Getting a house, getting a decent career is far more difficult due to the huge increase in university attendance. Saddled with debt if they do get a degree.
And quit the "bleating" comments just because it doesn't conform with your views.
