I've come to think the way we teach Economics 101, for people not taking more courses beyond that - students would be better off not taking it at all. Replace it with like a personal finance course imo.
In my experience I would agree that the way Econ 101 is taught is poor, but I wouldn’t go as far as to say people aren’t better off for taking it.
It is insane that there isn’t a personal finance class offered in every high school in the US. If I was the decision maker at a school it would be mandatory.
