where would conservative middle america REALLY side on this issue?

I was just reading this piece about how older traditional native San Franciscans hate these young techies who are moving into the city, driving up housing prices, and making more money than they are and many of them don't even have a college degree. They're entrepreneurs or programmers who didn't have to go through 4 years of college, racking up 200k of debt majoring in Sociology.
From the article: "You are supposed to enter college as an aimless dreamer. You are supposed to incur $122,000 in debt, while a bunch of middle-aged professors help you discover who you are. I don’t care if your passion is for designing interfaces — you have not gone through the self-discovery process yet! You only think that you know what you want in life. And, while at college, you are supposed to party as cheaply as possible, pretend you are not getting help from your parents, and work some sort of menial $8/hour job on campus in the gym or at the bookstore. Then, when you graduate, you are supposed to get a job at the bottom of some corporate totem pole, earning peanuts, while praying that your arbitrary performance review can get you a 4 percent raise and a good recommendation for business school. Or law school. Or one of those “I hate my life, I am going to switch gears by getting an MFA” schools."
At a glance this seems like a conflict between traditional older Americans vs. young yuppies and techies, and you'd probably think that middle america would side with the former. But think again, think about the southern conservative tea partiers, who fight against college loans, value low taxes, low regulations, capitalism, supports small businesses. Here in the south I can't think of any reason for the rest of America to sympathize with these middle class San Franciscans.
