My post is very clear and declares:

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

However, it is also important to understand that literacy, in its modern interpretation, is vital for those seeking employment.Any country that is stupid enough to encourage those without these language skills to enter this country, any country,must be prepared to support them with endless welfare. Young persons with time on their hands is a recipe for social disaster, and turmoil. They will turn to anyone or ideology, especially anachronistic Allah, to vindicate their feelings and frustrations.

Concern with literacy is very well founded.
Many of Americans with poor literacy are entirely home-grown! And among the things that they turn to is anachronistic fundamentalist Christianity.
Everyone needs a good education.
