The christian neo con/teabaggin/conservative trumpin republicans do not want education, as it opens doors for people to engage their brains in critical and common sense thinking. They need undereducated people to maintain their voting base. If you want, type "Study links low intelligence and low IQ, to conservatism and prejudice". It clarifies that children with limited education, tend to turn into into conservatives with orejudices toward others not like them.
But they do send the privileged offspring to get educated, to boss and guide the easily led uneducated,mfollowers with limited intelligence, for pushing through their corrupt agenda
