[AW-blsd]

Math is not subjective. How anyone can argue otherwise just proves the education system has failed miserably lol

[jimmykoh]

Ever wondered why these kind of debates only happen in America? Yes

3 reasons why America is about to end
1 Populations becoming weak in the math skills
2 arguing about nonsense
3 avoiding the facts

Thank you America for making me feel smart

[jefferybrown]

The biggest problem that math equation raises is a severe lack of uniformity in the United States education system.

[SullyXXV]

Why do I feel like I was the only person taught BEDMAS?

[genevievegreene]

This video makes me grateful for two things. 1) I am through with school and 2) I am not American. Policemen on horseback here mostly means there is a parade.
