Would you ever recommend a NA degree?

Everything lumped "below NA" are not considered to be all degree mills. There are the state approved schools, many of these are approved for certificates, diplomas, and associates, with a few having bachelor degree offerings. These schools are perfectly fine for the state you're in, but not be for other states if it requires licensing; for the professions that do not require a license to practice, you should be fine.

Can you give some examples of somewhere where you can get an associates degree that is non-accredited in any way, yet state approved? And that a state will accept as a degree?

I know you can for example, become a barber by going through a state-approved school/program, but they do not claim to be accredited, or an associates degree.

I think you're conflating state-required licensing with an accredited degree program.
