So should gender studies.
Pondering reality doesn't exactly have its uses that a free book on the internet can't provide
It shouldn't be a required class for a major maybe.
@ExceptionalFeather yes, thank you. except what happens when you get small raise that takes you just into the next bracket?
It should be allowed in school, but not be funded a penny
Who makes books though 🤔
You get taxed at the higher percetage for the amount you make IN the higher bracket
@Grenade123 then the portion of the raise that goes in the bracket gets taxed a little more
nah, school should be there to teach you the basics, and later on a trade of choice in something thats valuable to society
Gender studies isn't valuable to society
You don't suddenly get taxed the higher percetage on the full amount
@Grenade123 I think there should be discussion on where and how much the brackets are but I don't believe in getting rid of them
You don't need a school to teach you anything really, it's for free on the internet.
School are there to teach how to think, not what to think.
exactly, but since children make poor decisions, in order to prevent a generation of stupids (on paper, cuz people are stupid in general)
You force them the basics by mandatory schooling
The problem with gender studies, and other such classes is that they're indoctrinating people into an ideology not the thrust of the ideas.
@Grenade123 there is also the issue of using brackets in determining welfare, which could be looked at
theres nothing to learn in gender studies, all it is is propaganda
That's not true.
theres nothing Gender Studies teaches you
thats specific to gender studies
Trades aren't the only useful knowledge you can have.
any knowledge outside a trade can be done outside school
school should be there to teach you a trade, so you can find specialised work
No.
does it take into account cost of living in the given area? because i feel like even the poor with working jobs in say California are rich if you just look at some of their salaries
You can read books by philosophers that doesn't make you a philosopher.
@Grenade123 That is usually handled more by city taxing, and wages
you can read books on how to philosophise
You can read books, and great authors, that doesn't make you a writer.
so then the feds shouldn't be taxing people, more taxing the states.
@Grenade123 Someone choosing to live in an expensive area are using their wealth to do so though as well so that should be factored in
i mean, if they are too far removed to really know the cost of living, why tax everyone when 70k could mean you are rich in like Louisiana and poor in cali.
No, philosophies is a cohortative line of education, it's part of you must challenge arguments, and have yours be challenged.
@Grenade123 For sure a lot of taxing and spending should be moved to the states
yes, and how do you need a full college class for that?
Argumentation isn't a skill that emerges naturally.
you can write a book "The fundamentals of Philosophy" and sell it for 30 bucks
Sure it is
