A Parent and Teacher's Guide to Answering This Obnoxious Question
When I was in middle school, I read a book called "The Kids Book of Questions."
One of the questions was along the lines of "What school subject do you think is useless?" I answered history.
I now look back and laugh at my ignorance.
I always answered that question with “what do you mean ‘use’?” It’d start a tangent that would often touch on many of your points here. Great compilation!

If you are a free man, everyday of your life.
If you're a consumerist cog, probably never. Go scroll some more.
We'll written, well argued. I enjoyed reading it.
