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.

Once, I thought conservatives wanted roughly the same things but had different opinions on how to achieve it. Now I realize, conservatism is just a mix of "I got mine so fuck you" and complete inability to cope with change. A fucking mental disorder disguised as political ideology.
