Depends on the specific degree. Ones that still deal with facts are ok, as they get more subjective they get worse. By the time you've got to degrees like "women's studies" they actually have negative value.

Some degrees are almost useless outside of teaching/writing about that subject or just as a general "I have a degree" to get into management.

Yes, but society needs at least a few historians, if only to prevent too much revisionism.
