You name it - it's a great major for various reasons. One of the most successful Majors for a politician or marketing/sales person.
You still didn't prove anything. Where are the actual figures? I already said you can use it to become a politician, but that doesn't require a history degree specifically. A Chemistry major could become a politician, so it isn't the history degree that specifically makes you qualified to be a politician. Hell, our President wasn't even a social science major at all.
so you're defining whether or not a degree "matters" by which jobs specifically require that degree?
That would mean that degree is much less useful and doesn't offer as many opportunities and is not required or asked for as much, so yes, that's a pretty clear indicator of a less useful degree.
It has a very low utility and is less useful than a large amount of other degrees.
what about degrees where the value is in the learning, rather than the degree itself?
edit: also, there are things that matter that aren't necessarily useful for the purpose of employment ---
