New Literacy Statistics Just Dropped, and it's grim. 50% of Americans read so poorly that they are unable to perform simple tasks such as reading prescription drug labels

If 21 % can't read (are Illiterate) then it makes sense that 79 % can read (are literate). So yes, nationwide and in the US are the same thing.
Besides that, I agree. No sources is a no go and no moderated comments is a fucking biohazard.
Seems like I can't read myself, I thought both said illiterate. My mistake.
No worries. I heard it a more common problem then one would think.
