    Conservatives are always finding new ways to make children afraid of going to school.

      They love the uneducated and they’re not quiet about it either.

        We won the evangelicals. We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated.

    And this means they won’t get educated. People who are uneducated cannot easily find work. Unemployed people are more likely to resort to crime to make ends meet if they are desperate. It almost seems as if it’s better for everyone to have kids go to school to keep crime rates down in the future.

      eyup. A lot of laws and policies even into this millenium in major cities like mine were made to get people to bring their kids to school and talk with police and it made a significant difference in some pretty bad neighborhoods. Now it goes back to gang control likely.

      But uneducated people are more desperate to work for exploitative employers. And if they commit crimes they can make profits for private prison companies. Republicans love the uneducated.
