Wait, how are the illiterate who aren't in poverty doing it?

There are a lot of manual labor, factory, and agriculture jobs that don't require high literacy. It's also not clear if they're limiting it to "English literacy".

Considering the questionable literacy of our last two Republican presidents, I think being very rich and capable of taking orders helps.

Well, in Trump's case, the capacity to convince his handlers he can take orders.
