They really need to have a class for this stuff in high school. Its way more important than 80% of the crap they teach that goes in one ear and out the other.

Bingo. Teach people how taxes work, how credit cards work, how mortgages work, how debt works, and various other life skills that most people wind up learning on the fly and is a large part of the reason we are in this current mess.
