I use poorly educated to mean people who do not pick up the education skills to keep themselves educated.

One can graduate from an Ivy League and be poorly educated, we've had presidents that prove this to be the case.

There is a difference between being given and education and becoming educated. One can become educated by sheer personal will as well as reject education despite all external efforts.

Good does not equal well.

Bad does not equal poor.
