What's it worth?

I personally think 80% of things we learn in school is unneeded and unused. I think we should have a few years to learn discipline, then a few more for career tech..I don't see the point of all the fillers except to maybe expand your mind's capacity.

 

Well, in school you develop skills on learning and retaining information, something very important in life. Also, of the 80% you don't care about, maybe someone else does...not every single person in your school can be content with everything taught; school is meant to have the ability to appeal to many different people with different interests.

 

I was using it as an example, there's a whole shitload of information that we don't need at all.

 

You bash the education system saying it has no value and all it does it create problems? I'll first start by pointing out watch the movie Fahrenheit 451 (I say watch because I know you have a violent opposition to reading) and that'll wrap it up in a nutshell.

However, in real life your boss isn't going to ask you about a book you read in fourth grade and do a book report. The point of the book is develop skills that can be translated to real life (i.e. critical thinking, reading, writing, math, logic, etc.). Not to mention the education system helps children develop social skills.

Another bad point is the fact that you point to rap as a reason for the world's problems. That's a terrible point. I personally don't listen to rap, but I can find just as many bad songs in genres such as rock and country.

Side note: Please remain this ignorant. I'd love to have you as my employee so I can walk all over you and you wouldn't realize that it was even happening.
