“According to a study conducted in late April by the U.S. Department of Education and the National Institute of Literacy, 32 million adults in the U.S. can’t read. That’s 14 percent of the population. 21 percent of adults in the U.S. read below a 5th grade level, and 19 percent of high school graduates can’t read.”

The link from the HuffPost article to the original article is even more depressing.

Your post should read:

'According to a study in late April, 32 million Americans can't read below a basic level; and

'The demographics of those who can't read are 41% Hispanic.'

I wonder how many of our wave of illegals and ex ME inhabitants ( so beloved by the Slimy Greens), can't 'read', with the result they will be dependent on welfare(that's our money), for a very long time?
