[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 2993825, member: 24531"] Your response is typical of this board; I bet you didn't even read my post...I am not saying they make too much, I am getting answers to form a better opinion. So far, it would appear that the noob teachers do pretty well but the teachers who have been at it awhile need the raises; the ones who have paid their dues...that is where my opinion is leaning. And again, if academia itself hadn't been complicit in the breakdown of the family, then some of these 40k teachers could do fine if they married someone who made the same or more than them and only had the number of kids they could support. I think say having a total family income of 100k with one kid and 2-3 months off in the summer wouldn't be so bad? None the less, as a tax payer I think we could give the teachers who've been teaching awhile a raise with lotto money, or from wasteful spending such as OMES, but I don't think they need to raise our taxes...as mentioned, they knew what they chose. The new teachers start out higher than I did with a bachelor's, it just appears once you get to the 10yr mark, it could stand to be higher if they were a good teacher. I am learning, evolving, open-minded...(but since you mentioned higher education, I still say academia has had an impact that isn't always positive :) Thanks for educating me none the less [/QUOTE]
