+248 Civics classes should be mandatory again in high school. Kids need to learn what responsibilities come with being a citizen, and especially how important it is to vote. A brief intro to economics should also be offered in this class so that people will actually understand the economic issues at hand, rather than voting for ignorant reasons, amirite?
