The thing is, they're way behind the times. This shit might have worked when it was still true that the only place you could get a post-high-school education was in a special building. These days you don't have to do that.
Do I like it? No, but it is an education. They don't check to see whether you got your bachelor's online or in a classroom when you apply for jobs. They just want to know you have one.
They're attacking women on all fronts. At this point Republicans and Democrats are working together. Their hatred of women goes hand in hand. Remove education, remove bodily autonomy, remove access to private spaces and what do you get. Women forced back into the home.
