Only great minds can read this. Apparently only 55 people out of 100 can. This is weird, but interesting!

Of the 45% that can't read that, I suspect that half couldn't read it even if it were written in standard English. Official claims for literacy in the U.S. are about 95-98% but I often suspect that that includes those that can only read at 2nd-3rd grade level and that if the standard were 12th grade level, the literacy rate would be more like 60%.

I've seen this before, also in Spanish. I don't think it's difficult at all. Almost everybody can read it. You don't need to have a great mind.
