Recent research shows that college professors/ teachers identify as liberal 15 times more than conservative. Are we paying for a learned skill for our children or an obnoxious indoctrination? These colleges are way over priced anyway. What gives?

The more educated you are, the more liberal you tend to be. It's no surprise that Ph.D holding professors tend to be liberal. They are among the most educated people in the country.
If you want more people to be conservative, don't stop at targeting college education. Abolish public education as a whole.
Exactly. The more that you are educated (by liberals) , the more liberal you become. This is the point and problem. Thank you.
I guess that means most lawyers, doctors, and accountants are liberal?
Yes. You are guessing that?

The older doctors, lawyers, etc may or may not lean Left. The future ones most likely will.
Studies show that in the 1950's, when American democrats were moving out to the suburbs, to get away from the violence and crime and crowded living , that these same people, who now are away from the city streets, most of them white men who started to have success, became conservative.
Now, that trend has changed to people of color. Many people of color that grow up middle class or less, and then have success, have become conservatives.

Do you believe in Science? Most educated people do.. but unfortunately these days the GOP seems to abandon facts and science for whatever fit's their narrative best. This of course doesn't fly well with educated people who know how to think critically and do respect science.
Knowledge is liberal

This is always among the dumbest things people say. If you take a Chemistry class, you learn Chemistry. If you take a math class, you learn math. There is no liberal indoctrination in college. Just total BS.
IF you are concerned about that for yourself or your children, you CAN send your kid to or go yourself to any number of colleges where they WILL be indoctrinated into Christian right-wing mindset...if that's what you want. There are a truckload of such colleges in this country.
Just such a stupid whiny ignorant concern.

This has nothing to do with science and everything to do with ideology and indoctrination. The Left has self proclaimed that they are the party of science. We on the right, don't reject vetted science, just the science that has been manipulated to further liberal agendas. Just like the Left tries to pretend that they are pro minorities, so we on the right are anti minorities. It's all in an attempt to gain votes and power, I get it. However, it's not true. We don't hate minorities.
