The problem with a BA is that it has become the equivalent of grade 12 in the workplace, effectively by over promoting degrees we've found a way to charge for the last year or two of high school.
Twenty years ago most jobs asked for Grade 10, if you could read, write and do basic math that was all you needed. Grade 12 got you a job in a bank or an office or as a cop that now require a degree, a degree got you the sort of starting pay and responsibility that now require a masters.
