I'm curious about whether the urban/rural divide has much overlap with the educated/non-educated divide?

Obviously I don't know nothing about nothing, or if even such an initiative would be possible to implement federally. I'm sure Republican states wouldn't take too kindly to the idea.
There is a definitely coloration between education and liberal thinking. It's exactly why someone like Betsy Devos was put in charge of education in the US, to cripple the public education system as much as possible. That way you keep the poor rural folks uneducated and reliably republican, and the wealthier people put their kids into private schools, making the republican donor class even richer. It's a win-win for the morally bankrupt
