There does seem to be a high correlation between people who cannot get stuff done but love talking about it, and those having an MBA.

I also get the impression that universities regard MBAs as an easy way to make money - ie. a repackaged and remarketed grab bag of bachelor degree subjects.

Am I being overly cynical?

I think you're being exceptionally observant. Just consider how heavily marketed MBA and especially "Executive MBA" programs are. Schools with brand cachet advertise them all over the place.
