Why do right wingers hated education?

The reality is not everyone is cut out for college, and that’s not a knock on them. Some people have amazing skills and a college degree isn’t required for them. Others have life circumstances that don’t allow them to go. Others just don’t do well in a structured class environment but in reality are plenty smart.

I think on the extreme an example like the Freakanomics folks who wrote about the Chicago drug dealers and how some of the leaders had Fortune 500 CEO level minds in how they built, structured and rang their organization and never went to college.

And for some folks trade schools serve a much better purpose than running up a bunch of debt for a college degree. And especially for older folks, college degrees weren’t as important to get a job as they are today.

Now I’ll admit every year I await the U.S. News and World Report rankings. I want to see where USC is ranked. If someone said that’s some elitist stuff and few care I wouldn’t argue with them.

Don't leave us hanging. How does USC rank every year? :D

I'm going off memory here (and we're talking pre 2016 and Trump) but those with advanced degrees voted left politically but Republicans still attracted (slightly) more college educated voters.

And that makes sense (to me at least). Traditionally the Democrats biggest supporters were blue collar/union workers, those in education and minorities and women (and while women get more degrees today than men I do not believe that was the case 50 years ago)

Times change. You'd never guess Democrats were the slave supporting party in 1865 or what you said, or that Republicans are the full blown fascist bigots now. I recall a Republican
technocrat party of intel spooks and geopolitical cold warrior realists. That's mostly gone.

I do not accept the premise of your fantasy world where it is remotely common for high school graduates to self-teach themselves quantuum physics, higher mathematics, and advanced laboratory genetics.

I however do accept your tacit admission that your life, and all the technology and public infrastructure you rely on, renders you utterly independent people with college and graduate school degrees.

I could teach a physics geek to change a tire in ten minutes.

There is zero chance you could sit down with books and teach youself professional competency in higher mathematics and physics in years of attempts.

TOTAL BULLSHIT. SCHOOL CHOICE IS A SUCCESS FOR THE STUDENTS/PARENTS EVERYWHERE IT HAS BEEN TRIED.

WHO THE FUCK IS "LEFT OUT". THE TEACHERS UNIONS. FUCK THEM.


NO ONE WHO WANTS TO CHOOSE THEIR KIDS' EDUCATION IS LEFT OUT.


LEFTISTS ONLY CARE ABOUT THE MONEY THEY GET FROM TEACHERS' UNIONS, AS OUR URBAN SCHOOLS CONTINUE TO FAIL OUR KIDS.

Not true. In WI, the choice schools are not required to do the state assessments. Nobody knows the real results. Moreover, the limited results do not show student growth.

States that value public education and public educators demonstrate student success at a much higher level than states that have defunded public education.
