Half of the stuff they teach in school is worthless. In fact, the state should keep out of education entirely.

Maybe someone can go through each syllabus and decide which half of the topics taught are worthless.
Then the teachers can work a 2.5 day week.

If you buy a few pints and some crisps in a pub, take a tenner out of your pocket and try your work out if that's enough, then you're using algebra.
