And then we have no federal standards whatsoever. So schools will decide that there’s no point in teaching mathematics if math teachers are expensive and impacting the bottom line. We’ll have a million different types of education, and absolutely zero unity as a country.
ehhhh, there’s kind of already a lack of unity as a country, and a lack of standards, and even with the standards apparently a lot of underperforming students

since businesses need people who have math skills, the market asks for people to be educated in math, in turn giving incentive for schools to teach math, so there are basically market checks and balances here
plus I imagine if you like math, you don’t need to be forced to learn it, you just fire up something like andymath.com and learn it yourself (for free / cost of internet + electricity) or could post on forums asking for help
It’s definitely a risk and gamble, but they think it will be worth it and produce better results
