You're literally arguing that making those people who don't understand those things more common won't be bad because you can still find some who aren't morons. As if failing to educate more people won't be a bad thing in and out itself.

More incompetent people means less competent ones. More incompetent people means more stress on welfare programs, lower average wages (which puts stress on the stability of your social security).

At least try to think one or two steps through the consequences of your own stances...

They're already gutting those.

Yes, Republicans have been attacking education for decades. They're creating a class system, and you're not in the good one.

This isn't the time for that. It's time to coalesce.

You're right, it's not the time for gutting public education
