> too many graduates from certain social sciences and humanities compared to the actual need of employers / academia.

The natural employer of the social sciences grad is the government- social workers, city planners, etc. This type of government funding has been under attack at all levels of government since the 80's. We don't see any benefit to, say, sociology, because we've bought the idea that those benefits only go to those that don't 'deserve' them, and are paid for by taking what I've 'earned'.
