That is exactly right on. Republicans do not recognize the importance of modern social science that allows societies to run in the most efficient manner for the benefit of everyone. A strong egalitarian society is good for everyone, including the rich.

A free strong public school system means less crime, and poverty and more productivity. When society does well everyone does well.
