Why we need to teach poker in the public school system.
With free trade, globalization, huge trade deficits, manufacturing moving off shore, our economy is slowing while China and India are growing rapidly. We are also lagging behind in mathematics hurting our competitiveness in science and engineering. Teaching poker in the public school can counter these effects. By using two plus two books we can enhance critical thinking skills, mathematics, game theory, and how to asses a risk-reward situation. Plus with educated poker players, and a global network of online gambling we weill have advanced players bringing in money to our economy. Money that we have lost from our declining industrial infrastructure.
