Demand for Financial Education in Milwaukee Public Schools

    The current curriculum in the United States and the State of Wisconsin, including public schools such as Milwaukee Public Schools, should be educated on the following curriculum:
    1)Financial Literacy
    a)We as, Federal taxpayers, are currently obligated to pay taxes which contribute to social security.
    b)As a group of peers which represent contributors to the federal social security fund, we find it in the responsibility of the state of wisconsin to be proactive in the solution to our future financial crises
    c)It is a fact that by the year 2033, the social security fund will be insolvent, or otherwise bankrupt in the attempt to pay out social security benefits to the unprecedented rate of those receiving said benefits known as the baby boomer generation.
    d) It is by this logic that we understand our implied responsibility in avoiding this catastrophe in one way or another, and continuing to pay into our own inherited debt would only highlight the pattern of financial ignorance which that lead to this and many other microeconomic and macroeconomic failures.
    e)We find it in the best interest of future generations to combat financial illiteracy with financial literacy
    f)This petition is the beginning of the public education reform in Milwaukee Public Schools and any other school systems that have systematically failed to produce our youth with the skills necessary to survive and live abundantly in a capitalistic society.
    2)This petition is to reform public education curriculum to hold financial literacy as a core learning subject in place of current funding or to be otherwise funded through the social security taxes we will not see benefits from.
    3)All those who sign in favor of education reform will be enrolled in financial education courses and learn how to produce our own retirement security through the subject of financial literacy.
    4) Details for further examination of conversation of financial illiteracy and education reform policy can be found in "researched academic argument" by Donovan Koeberl, a detailed look into what this petition supports.
