Why did they lie to us?
They told us and made us memorize that pluto was a planet in our solar system. Not only have I never used this fact, I was forced to memorize one to many planets. I know a ot of comedians joke about algebra being useless which it is. But what about only teaching us the alphabet forwards when there are critical times in life you need to know it backwards. I can't do my own taxes, balance my checkbook, where's your algebra now? We leave high school with no pratical knowledge. When are we goimg to know that a train and car were doinng speed x to get to point y. We look at the train schedule and then addd 1/2 an hour because we know they are lying. In a car we risk dying speeds but usually get there the same time as a law abiding citizen give or take 3 minutes. How to do basic plumbing in your house, fix a toilet lets say call a plumber pay $300 now that knowledge is worth something. The bones in my hand unless I break one and the doctor will explain anyway useless, thanks for the time suck biology class. And don't tell me you know anyone proficient in a foreign language from high school..... You get my point...
