>Blacks read more than Hispanics
>Rural people read more than suburbanites
>Younger people read more than older people
Perplexing
at least 50% read jackshit

I still would have expected zero
i would have guessed one. it seems like a lot of people would make a new years resolution to read a book and then give up
If it was mean sure, but I think of the average person as an absolute mongoloid who can't read news articles
How come German and finnic speaking countries are the highest ranked?
>women are more well-read than men
/r9lit/ btfo
we're still le 56 percenters dude.

That's not a good thing.
Shut up illiterate fag
