School Responsibilities

I feel like you want to talk about a lot more than high school curriculum. :hihi:

You're talking about macroeconomics, or some version of it. That's generally a first year college course, and obviously a pre-requisite for business/marketing/economics etc. But maybe it should be expanded to be more universal so its not only taught to the folks who intend to use it to exploit the rest of us :hihi:

There are high schools that teach Macroeconomics. Ben Franklin is one of them, but I suspect that it pretty rare in the State of Louisiana. I know my Catholic High School didn't come close to teaching things like that. Schools probably should offer things like that but, at least in New Orleans, most of the schools are struggling to have the money to teach basic match and grammar skills much less teach finance and macroeconomics. So, while it's feasible at Ben Franklin and maybe a few of the Catholic High schools, it's probably not feasible in the curriculum of most public schools in New Orleans or Louisiana in general.

Although from a post above, we apparently have a law similar to the one Florida is passing, but I'm not sure how well it has been implemented.
