YouTube rap video's might not be the best focal point to have a discussion about high school curriculum design issues.

Do you think that anybody designing curriculas wouldn't want them to provide more direct value everything being equal?
I don't hold much hope out for improvements when the average person can't even stay on topic.
School curriculum's don't get designed by the average person, what makes you think that the average person ability to stay on topic matters for the issue?
