He is entirely correct in his expectations. Discovering what your own business actually is represents a great leap forward for the otherwise dependant.

Fully 65 percent of U.S. universities unable to successfully teach their students math, economics, government, science and literature
The 2015–16 edition of What Will They Learn? – a review of 1,100 colleges and universities – has just been published by the The American Council of Trustees and Alumni (ACTA). The study shows that most institutions of higher learning are allowing students to graduate without a basic grasp of many key subjects.

I'm quite sure that your attitude will mean you no loger converse with your fellows here at some point in the near future because you are too ignorant of the reality of societal collapse.

The only thing that I have ingested lately is an egg salad sandwich. Actually there was plenty of parents who complained about the loss of cursive writing, and they put it back into the system.
Yesterday at Tim Horton whatever I purchased came to $4.25...
I pull out a 5 dollar bill which the young girl promptly enters on her cash and the change shows up as 75 cents, but i had my other hand in the other pocket and pull out a quarter, because i don't like too much loose change...
Simple enough non?
Well the dingbat behind the counter had to cancel the sale and and enter $5.25 to figure out to give me back a loonie..
When one signs a legal document does it not have to be in such a way that the squiggly f**king line is identifiable as "his/her signature"?
Couple weeks back I'm at a McDonalds. Similiar situation.
Guy behind the counter shorts me a dollar in the change.
I point it out and have to show him several times for it to
sink in. He just didn't get it. He had to go get a supervisor
from out back (having a smoke), and have me show them
the receipt and the change, and explain the original transaction
in order to get the till open and get the missing loonie into my
pocket.
If kids can't count, how do they know when they're getting
screwed over (intentionally or not) by someone else who
also can't count?
Some of us still pay cash. I deplore debt and pay cash whenever possible.
If kids don't learn math, who's going to program the computers in the future?
Surely you have noticed at some time that when the power goes down, everything grinds to a standstill? People eating in a restaurant can't leave because they can't use their credit cards. Customers with cash can't leave because the cash register won't open and there won't be a record of the sale. Supermarkets can't process the line-ups because the scanners and cash registers don't work.
We had a 5 day blackout in this area a couple of years ago and the service stations couldn't sell gas. Society is too dependent on computerized equipment and can't function without it.
If store clerks could add, subtract and multiply they could still carry on business when their computers are down by simply keeping track of transactions with a pen and paper.
No they didn't. My mother was a school teacher in the one-room schools of old. The kids respected the teacher, there was discipline backed up by the parents. There were rewards for good marks and failures for those who didn't learn.
Mother went back to teaching in the 1950's, taught for a couple of years and quit for good when she became aware of the 'no fail' policy, the lack of discipline allowed and the general futility of trying to teach kids who were allowed to do as they please backed up by the parents.
My niece is now a school teacher and has problems continually with unruly children who cannot be disciplined or expelled and expect to pass when they don't learn the curriculum.
One would have to be either very brave or crazy to be a teacher nowadays!
As long as the squiggly line is consistent. It can be as complex or as simplistic as you like.
I'm sure nobody, that doesn't know Ulf Nilsson, would know who this is

Good for you however, this isn't about you. It's about future generations. You do understand the concept of the education system don't you?
Ironic you'd say that while it was already mentioned in this thread about how humans seem to fail to learn from history.
Don't be any denser than you already are. In any business if you want to get above fry cook at rotten ronnie's level you need math skills.
I'd amend that to dish washer.
That has to be the MOST brain dead decision ever introduced to the education system! How would a person like to be operated on by a neuro surgeon who is too dumb to pass the course?
