Do liberals just attend more but graduate much less? Or what is it?

Answer 1

More college students graduate as liberal Democrats.

More adults are conservative Republicans (most are college grads, too) once they figure out the liberal agenda isn't what they thought it was.

Answer 2

Since you're a Wikipedia man, why didn't you report it all? Democrats have more Masters and Ph.D.'s.



Academia

Although Democrats are well-represented at the postgraduate level, self-identified Republicans are more likely to have attained a 4-year college degree. The trends for the years 1955 through 2004 are shown by gender in the graphs below, reproduced with permission from Democrats and Republicans — Rhetoric and Reality, a book published in 2008 by Joseph Fried.[25] These results are based on surveys conducted by the National Election Studies, supported by the National Science Foundation.[28]

Answer 3

The Liberal ideology is a theory which holds forth beliefs that have no basis in reality.

They are Advocates of a policy that empowers a strong government to enslave its people with a high tax burden incident to the support of extravagant and unnecessary social programs destructive to both the work ethic among the lower class, and the incentive to innovate and succeed among the working class.

The problems we face today are because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

A democracy will continue to exist up until

the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous

gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority

always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from

the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally

collapse over loose fiscal policy

Answer 4

All you have to do is look at the simple minded statements of many cons to get that stat. LOL. Of course it is just an over simplification. But those that say that once people pay taxes they become republicans crack me up. Is that all you vote on, taxes? If so, I feel sorry got you. I am a 42 year old professional, and my life and professional experience makes me wonder how I ever could have been a republican.

Answer 5

Their elite mentality. They use that so they can make it seem as if it is okay for them to live their lives like that of guests on the Jerry Springer Show as they are behaving like sociopaths and treating all others around them like dirt. Oh, but once in a while they speak up for all victims, but then ruin it by saying something anti-semetic.

Answer 6

Because actual graphs and figures support what liberals are saying. You're homemade graphs don't prove anything.



WIKIMEDIA is not a fact based site.

Answer 7

We were all idealistic when we graduated from college. Then real tax bills came and changed our views. Most adults who support more government do so because they are on the receiving end of those tax dollars.



Only people who make good money understand that they pay most of the taxes.

Answer 8

Any Shmoe with PowerPoint can make a graph like that. Where did the numbers come from?

Answer 9

Liberals LIE, obviously!

Answer 10

It's a chicken and egg sort of thing.



Liberals learn to be liberal in college in many cases, meaning that they are easily impressionable.

Answer 11

Liberals are followers and dependent.

Republicans are leaders and independent.
