Pubic schools are wasteful in many ways...including how they arrange their pay scales.  Like I said...teachers who are attracted to this environment are the ones who only care about pensions, and other ridiculous benefits that have no place in a public sector position.[/quote]

If you want good people in a position, then you have to offer them something they want in return. Usually that is monetary compensation -- either salary, or benefits, or both. That is how the free market works. Teaching is not magically immune to market forces. Very few people with other options are interested in a job that involves hard work, little pay, and even less prestige.

So tell me why the best teachers are in schools that pay less and have mediocre benefits (privates)?  Because the conditions are better for the teachers and the students.

Cite your source for your assertion that the "best" teachers are in private schools.
