Calculus is not necessary to becoming an educated well-rounded person. People skills are among the most important skills to have in today's society. The need for people who understand calculus is far less than the need for people who undertstand people.
I hope these thoughts and sites are of some help.

I have earned an Associate Degree in Computer Science, a Bachelors in Business Administration, A Masters of Business Administration and work full time in the Computer Science field. I never took a day of Calculus ever and am making a six figure salary and living well.
Why? The computer. It does everything that the slide rule does and more. You can you imagine what the computer has accomplished when you realize that tha illustrator of thirty years ago worked weeks to build a three dimensional model in wire frame. Now the computer does it in minutes by doing all of the math faster than any human ever could.
I suggest that the gist of your report is that the computer has made hard math a dinosaur in the real world.

Why we should not take calculus?
Because it's hard. Why take something hard in college?
Calculus is the basic building block in mathematics for the sciences, statistics and for advanced business subjects like finance. Why would an educated person want to learn about any of these subjects?
The above are sarcastic replies.

You can always use the honest argument that our society is brain dead and our youth expects the government and rich people to provide everything to them so what is the point in actually earning a degree? Why shouldn't it just be given out to those who want it?
What does a degree prove anyways? Pssh nah let's just let America become more and more dumb as it has been for the last 40 years.

Calculus is very important for people in finance,engineering,statistics,maths dept.If they need it,why shouldn't they take it??
On the other hand,it's not that u can't live if u dont take calculus.What subjects u take depends on what u want to be in life,what job ur gonna do.
Andif u need it,so wat if it's hard??Nothing is easy in life.
