1/ If you think of the money (and time) spent getting a formal education compared to what is available on the Internet (or in books) it is getting ridiculous. There are many topics that can be mastered on one's own.

The thing with spending a lot on education is the impact of the reputation of the school on the persons CV when looking for job
And there you have it. Schools program people for jobs and obedience. It is why most do not succeed. They lack the fundamental skills to attain more in life. I think that is by design.
Best part is you can go at your own pace too - usually meaning faster if it's a topic you are naturally interested in.
Without a doubt. There are many successful people, multi millionaires who never went to college. Instead, they worked hard and studied their ass off. This is what it takes.
There's no reason a student should be locked into school for 1 year when textbooks' contents can be learned within a month. Mastery of content can be demonstrated by passing a test; pass that test, and advance. Think of course validation.
Suck then dry with student loans and teach them to be obedient all the whole feeding them an agenda.
Seems like a good reason to me.
2/ In many areas, a lack of knowledge is no longer acceptable.
Take finance. There are millions of places, including Leo, to get the knowledge. Spend 4 years online studying and you will be one of the leading experts.
