Majority of Republicans Think Higher Education Negatively Impacts Nation

A majority of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents (58%) now say that colleges and universities have a negative effect on the country, up from 45% last year. By contrast, most Democrats and Democratic leaners (72%) say colleges and universities have a positive effect, which is little changed from recent years.

Looking at the graph it is banks (loans?) and Jesus that bring prosperity.

Fox "News" and Rush Limbaugh in action. Sad!

Trump said in Nevada during the campaign the he likes the poorly educated people.
These idiots are taking this to heart and probably hoping to get a minimum wage job at one his hotels. Hope they are not planning on asking for a raise, will get them fired.
This is un f*@#ing believable.

Small wonder this country has gone downhill since the alt-right movement. I predict we will one day be Syria.
