If "the entrants" feel strongly enough about reducing track time and increasing entry costs in order to, effectively, subsidize the racing schools, then so be it. My gut feeling is they'd say "no".
If I were starting from scratch today, I highly doubt I'd use the SCCA "ladder" to get a license, unless there was a class specific to SCCA that I just felt compelled to run solely. There's just too many other ways to do it, at more track time and lower cost.
