Mathematical Bullshit

The lie that an educated person needs to be versed in both probability and statistics, besides being fluent in applied arithmetic, to function confidently in life.

Unless they’re a math teacher or textbook writer, folks from most walks of life hardly need anything beyond grade four math to handle everyday numbers seamlessly—that they require higher math to succeed in life is nothing but mathematical bullshit.
