Insisting things like tax returns or household maintenance should be taught in school.
The goal of Education is not to train you to fit into the system you happen to grow up in, but should provide the foundation (litaracy, STEM, art …) and awaken the curiosity in yourself to become lifelong learner.
That will develop society, and not a bunch of drones doing their tax returns and changing tires every season.
I mean it would also help if we had a functional tax system in the US that wasn’t deliberately made overly complicated to encourage people to pay for tax filing services.
At minimum; school should give you the tools to be able to figure out how to do taxes/basic house maintenance/etc. But also, sometimes people need a little extra help; and we should have some sort of system to help people learn those things.
