EDIT: A lot of you are reading into the tweet while still somehow agreeing with the overall message. No one is saying we should eliminate music programs or that we should teach toddlers about healthcare plans. The tweet is making this thing called a --checks notes-- joke, that also conveys the message that schools could teach more practical skills that young adults will need going forward.

We have classes that teach how the government works, although they're usually taught by football coaches who would rather teach PE.

And they only cover the technical way that the government theoretically works, not the backroom deals and bribery that actually runs the government.
