Why? It's objectively true. A smaller percentage of Americans have post secondary education, college education on aggregate is of lower quality, and primary and secondary schools are vastly inconsistent. As someone who spends a great deal of time in the states on business, in both red and blue states, the lack of general knowledge amongst college educated Americans is disconcerting.

This has manifested itself in a polarized political climate (brought about by a lack of intelligent media coverage) that doesn't allow for middle ground - the extension of this being the extremist groups we see clashing today.
