[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never met anyone who thinks that teachers are overpaid. I do find some arguments teachers make in favor of higher pay kind of obnoxious, I suppose.[/quote] But here's the thing … in what other industry is there a public debate over salaries? Except minimum-wage rate jobs. Why does anyone get a say? Do non-nurses get to chime in about how nurses are under or over paid? What about lawyers? Hair stylists? Why do we all think we are entitled to judge teachers on every level?[/quote] Because teacher salaries come out of local taxes, mostly. So there is a pretty strong correlation between increasing salaries and increasing taxes. Taxpayers get a say on what their money is used for. [/quote]
