Like most "improvements" to public education, this will be a good thing if it is well-implemented.
Note that "if".
I think that "if" extends to pretty much any attempt to do anything, ever.
Awesome. I think lack of math education leads to gullibility, and there is so little recourse for people that have been scammed, it just screws people for life. Hiding behind interest rates is like selling snake oil in a circus, but for modern times.
This is going to be hard without math.
That would be good, but how about the same requirement before running for state office?
Do you not trust the electorate to carefully scrutinize and select qualified candidates?
