Viviscarlet - Re XNexoX's answer:
It goes even further than that.
Without sufficiently large number of people able to understand and use mathematics, not only would having no computer and Internet mean you being unable to tell us all you wish to be innumerate; you would not even have the electricity to power the computer!
Nor would you be living in a decent home with clean mains water and drainage. They would be impossible without the work over the last couple of centuries by man, many mdedicated engineers versed in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, etc.
Nor could you travel anywhere except by foot of horse; on rough tracks, not good-quality asphalted roads. Flight would be only for the birds. As for sea voyages... they would be extremely hazardous adventures by sailing-ship, and not particularly good ones at that. Without Maths, designing cars, buses, aeroplanes, trains, ships etc., would be impossible.
If you don't believe in Maths, you'd better throw out your portable 'phone and any other electronic communications and entertainment equipment too: such instruments require a heck of a lot of advanced mathematics in their designing and (internally), in their ways of operating.
I was poor at Maths at school too, and frankly often failed to understand its point because that was never really explained; but I regret it because my inability barred me from any possible career in either Science or Engineering - both are intensely mathematical.
