Yeah. The little amount of financial literacy that I have, I got from experience; it was never taught to me by the school system.

Hmm, you are right. But this is not knowledge that is taught to us. So, the main problem is politicians limiting the information given, no?
Thanks for the explanation, but keep in mind that this is not only about the US. I am Portuguese, and this is a problem here, AFAIK. Nonetheless, this would simplify the tax calculation.
Yeah. I guess the most important thing is to educate people, something that politicians haven't done, because they know that people wouldn't vote in them, if they were educated.
We need to rid our society of greed, jealousy, and hate. But that is also in our genetics, so it will take a lot of effort.
We (the people) desperately need to find a balanced solution, one that slowly makes people realize that capitalism hurts them, and that the only way is to make the richest people max. 3 times richer than the very poorest. And there should be a point where money is not a thing, anymore. However, that conclusion will only happen in decades, if not centuries.
But the Democrats are the lesser evil of two. Just because you vote in the lesser evil doesn't mean you can't fight it, later on. Bernie Sanders knew he most likely wouldn't win, so he focused on fighting the Greater Evil: Trump, and the MAGA mob.
Ah. Thanks for telling me about this project, though!
So, do those minority protections have to be implemented in the Constitution of the country itself?
I actually thought about including that (counting abstaining as voting for no party/leader) in the post, but the problem would be people voting for the Greater Evil, because they don't really want to vote. But it would, indeed, lower the amount of people who don't vote.
Yeah. I personally think that a mathematical curve would address that.
