No one is forced to be a teacher.  You know what you are going to get paid when you enter the profession.  All lawyers have a law degree.  You pay more for the ones with more experience, not more law degrees.[/quote]

Yes, we want our children to be taught be the unambitious, the uneducated, and the inexperienced. And, we want the best education system in the world. And, cheap. We want it cheap.

I didn't say that.  But I do think it is silly to give teachers extra money simply because they get a masters degree.  We had a first year teacher last year (no masters) and she was way better than many of the older, more educated teachers we have had.  We have also been in a charter where the TfA grads came in way better than the older teachers hired from DCPS with masters (not saying all of them but I was surpised at how great they were for "inexperienced" teachers).  Not saying that everything should be based on test scores but it shouldn't be based simply on education either.  [/quote]
