Is it not possible for truck drivers to appreciate knowledge
generated in a univerisity? Why is assumed that ordinary
people could never value or understand this - isn't this a rather
dim view of truck drivers?

I think the point is that the contribution of the working
class to state-financed higher ed is disproportionate to
their benefits, relative to those with higher incomes.
State tax systems tend to be regressive, and public universities
admissions are tilted to those w/higher income.
