Even if you did put learning how to file your taxes in high school, no one was ever going to pay attention to it. We can tell based on how so many people voted in the previous election.

Most wouldnt some would. It would also depend on when its taught. If youre not going to use that konowledge for several years youre going to for get it or hell the process might even change. Should be taught right after were allowed to work/earn money. Where youll use it at least within the year you learned it

I'm Canadian and I had a lesson about filing taxes in grade 9 social studies. I think most of the class didn't learn anything. Maybe it should have been more than one class period but it was taught. I'm sure it is throughly taught at some schools
