Real life applicability.

I've been thinking lately that a lot of what is taught at school. I've begin to think that while subjects at school can be interesting yet a lot of it doesn't serve doesn't serve particular real-life applicability.

Furthermore, a lot of what does have real-life applicability like the laws and the government of a country is not really taught. Any comments?

I agree some basics of law, constitution, and political systems should be taught. I also believe that logic, eristics and theory of argumentation should be taught, especially these days, when access to information is easier than ever, but it's getting increasingly difficult to separate rubbish from the information of genuine value.
