in reply to Laffy • • •Republicans are opposed to the universal social mobility that access to education affords to the working and middle classes.
Under the GOP's policy of immiseration:
Education will be gradually limited to white evangelical men with wealthy parents, who vote for the Party.
Limiting opportunities for the populace was how European aristocracy was built & a permanent lower class was manufactured.
Inbred upper class twits.
