I Hate Meaningless Music

Why on earth do us tax payers have to pay for schools to teach arts and music? Like it’s absolutely useless to a child and they won’t ever make money from it, so why not just scrap that stuff and put the money towards better maths and science teaching? Kids don’t need to learn about music or art, they find their own.

Sports is a bit of a waste of money as well. Why waste it on false promises of fame or income, only to find there is none?

No, education should be about working with businesses, companies, getting children to get used to actual skills that people care about and will actually be useful for society and makes money. There is no time or place for things that does not make money or is not interesting to companies, businesses or society.

Musicians, singers and footballers can make more many than doctors or mathematicians. Might not be right but thats just how it is. Not everyone can be an academic.

@NestChicken Sorry about your friend. But one person does not speak for everyone. It sounds like he is not using much effort.

@MaryJanine he tried his best, but people abused and bullied him
In the industry. He lost his sanity. The country needs to get rid of arts and music and educate people about money making stuff and punish the bad people big time
