gollark: "How to get a job" is very complex, but that just means school would teach it very uselessly and/or vaguely and/or outdatedly.
gollark: Great, but they can probably find documentation on taxes somewhere when they need it, since I don't think it's very complex either.
gollark: Exactly.
gollark: People say they want stuff like taxes and mortgages explained but I'm pretty sure tax is magically handled by employers and mortgages aren't very difficult maths.
gollark: What would you actually like explained which you can't find out on your own practically?
