you’re probably right about the school side of things being easier, so i’ll retract my statement on that.

but i don’t see changing the education system as a viable alternative to changing the tax system. i feel like the current tax system is so complicated that teaching any kind of class on the tax system will amount to trying to teach an accounting class to high schoolers. and i don’t see that as a desirable solution. it would be better to simplify the system and teach high schoolers about that simplified system (in my opinion)

but i should probably make it clear that i’m not claiming to have any kind of authority over this stuff. i’m happy to change my mind on these things
