Some people are retarded and we don't have to care about them.
Wait, that's not hidden.
Neither is this:
If you study and always finish your homework and never ditch school or do
drugs or cause trouble, you will make over $100,000 a year and be happy your
whole life.
Math has to be taught in a certain order. (Also not hidden; lots of
math-degreed adults still believe it.)
Sports can make you rich, and good equipment is only for those who might be
on that track.
Music and art aren't really important.
"Business math" isn't real math.
