    A lot of states would already be classified as third world. Take away the funding from blue states and they go straight to undeveloped

        How many have you been to? I’ve been to a few.

        I didn’t realize that 3rd world is a derogatory term from the Cold War era so let’s switch to developing.

        One developing country I’ve been to is Paraguay. They have a literacy rate of 94.54% and apparently the global literacy rate is 86.3%

        Let’s look at US states now https://www.datapandas.org/ranking/literacy-rate-by-state

        Yes I just quickly googled these because this is social media, not a uni term paper
