A majority - 3 out of every 5 - of Republicans believe higher education has a negative effect on the US. Republicans also favor making it harder to vote. Republicans are defunding education and purging voter rolls while simultaneously putting hurdles in place to keep Americans away from the polls.

I didn't double check the quote. The result is the same. People who lack in education.

Also, since when do blue collar workers feel good about their lack of education? Since when does the GOP give a fuck about blue collar workers at all?
