MODERATORS
We went over stocks and taxes in my high school civics class, though I'm not sure how many people actually paid attention to it. If anything, I would say this sort of discrepancy in curriculum between one area and another is a compelling argument for establishing a national curriculum and federal funding of schools in order to wrest control away from backwards politicians that handicap their students in many states.
Set higher standards across the board, eliminate conservative nonsense policies on topics like sex ed, evolution, CRT or whatever new garbage they come up with, and establish federal funding to make it possible, including hard caps on how much of the budget can be used for athletics relative to academics. If your town wants to fund a new super stadium for the high school football team, great, they can levy local taxes or private funding somehow, as long as the actual school budget for spending on academics isn't impacted.
