I think the commercialization of education, including the non-profits, has led the doctorate to become a readily attainable degree. I think anyone average brains can through patience work his way through a doctoral program. 30 years ago only the best and brightest could dream of a doctorate. Back then schools would hand out a dozen or two a year. Now they grant hundreds.
I know people today are walking around with business doctorates for less work in the field than a bachelors degree 30-40 years ago. An irrelevant bachelors is followed with a quicky MBA followed by a quicky DBA. Next to no math, accounting, or the hard stuff.
