學歷社會，是社會需求與教育擴張互動的産物。
Government, society, media, educational institution and individual are all constructors and participators of a credential society.
政府、社會、媒躰、教育機搆和個躰行動者，都是文憑社會的建搆者和蓡與者。
While condemning users of fake credentials on both legal and moral grounds, we somehow tend to sympathize with them as they are victimized by a society addicted to the credential mania.
雖然我們會基於法律和道德的理由去譴責這些購買和使用假冒文憑的人，但我們仍然會對他們懷有某種惻隱之心，因爲他們也是這個唯文憑是論的國度的犧牲品。

And a lot of these rules are arbitrary, and unstated. (One of the greatest arbitrary rules in our society is that you need a formal credential to be successful.) If you are creative, willing to take some risks, pick yourself up after some failures, and keep trying new approaches until you succeed, you can usually make your own game in life—a wide open blue ocean—with your own rules.
