They are taught - they just don't pay attention or remember the "boring stuff we will never use" and then after going with the flow for decades with no forward thinking look for somebody to blame for their own failures.

Seriously, all of those who goofed off in home ec and math complaining years later that they don't know how to cook or balance a checkbook.

The immediate resources were often subpar I will admit but don't say you weren't taught.

You are making excuses for teacher's & parents failings to teach so that someone understands the lesson. You are also by definition accepting that discrimination is essential for a successful society. My issue is where the state, parents want authority over someone but dont perform their basic requirements properly. Alot of people are stupid for even accepting the failings and accepting of the authority these entities have over people.
