My 7yo is doing a math worksheet and it's telling him that the eraser (37 cents) costs more than the pencil (18 cents) and he's OUTRAGED.

"If you're poor and you can't afford the eraser, you can't correct your mistakes. BUT IF YOU'RE RICH you can erase ALL your mistakes."
I feel like my work here is done.
I cannot believe this is touching off a "but pencils have (small, crappy) erasers so poor people are fine" debate.
