Perhaps you should work on your reading comprehension skills. It clearly states changing benefits for new teachers and not current teachers.  Therefore, a person seeking to enter the profession has a choice do something else.  If teachers were not receiving the benefits from higher taxes then they would not vote for a tax increase.  I guess all those
 teachers would be very supportive of increasing their taxes for a better 
pension for regular state government 
workers.  They pay taxes too.

Simple economics.  If a society wants highly motivated, highly intelligent people to enter teaching then society needs to reward them as such.  If not, then don't expect the best/brighest to enter the field of education.

You can't ask people to choose careers that require them to earn advanced degrees and skills that are mostly unique to education and then decide to pay them less because they are employable only within the field of education.
