I may have communicated poorly. I mean, during high school, everything should be taught to everyone, probably (this is the stage of "throw everything and see what sticks"), so my argument was more like, we shouldn't expect everyone to learn it.
Knowing what algebra looks like, at least, and to solve basic stuff (I need to fit N cabinets in a X x Y space, or whatever), but most people aren't going to go around life messing with polynomials or square roots most of the time unless it's in their job description.
