No, because as I said, learning statistics has helped my critical thinking improve - and that's something everyone needs. There was even an example in my comment regarding reduced susceptibility to yellow journalism, which can only be a positive to both the individual and society in general.
I also use simple algebra a lot in my every day life. By solving simple equations you can with little effort derive formulas for calculations you have never done before.
Statistics are useful in the way the parent post mentioned.
Logarithms are useful for better understanding some statistics, but this has less every day use than the two above.
And while I do not use calculus in my every day life I still find it very useful to reason about ordinary things in the terms of derivates and integrals. It has given my new ways to think about problems.
