More money hasn't solved the poor quality of public education in America.

We tried more money over many decades. It didn't work.

Teacher unions have been a major roadblock to progress. They are a TEACHER union, not an EDUCATION or STUDENT union. Wonder who pays them fees to exist and whose interest they will be pushing for?

That is generally how unions operate.

Now pay me.

teaching grades 1-12 shouldnt require an overpriced 4-12 year education. teacher is one of the easiest jobs in the world, you just have to be smarter than children. children aren't that smart. thanks norm.

The folks who become teachers, went to college, knowing that they were not going to be paid a high salary. If they didn't know that, they were not smart enough to be teachers.
I have cousins who have retired from teaching, they made it their career. They went to teacher colleges got degrees and continued their education while they worked but still, they complained that they didn't make enough.
When I got out of the Air Force after 12 years, I got a job and scraped by. When a better job came along that paid more I moved to that job. I did that all my working life. If you think you aren't making enough, get a job that pays more.
If the teachers are not intelligent enough to do even that when they feel underpaid, should they be teaching?
hey can i have your platinum when you die?

Most pub school teachers are full blown alcoholics/drug users/sex offenders. Thats why they like that3 month off and that tenure. Don't send your kids to government day care

My point is, it is a low paying job, they know it is a low paying job, they go to college to get a low paying job. Then they complain that it is a low paying job. That isn't very bright.
All the other "stuff" you have posted about what you think my point is, is you projecting your opinion onto me. You can keep it, I don't want it. I have enough of my own hangups.

You just don't like school/schoolteachers. Everyone complains about their job. The cashier at 7-11 is also complaining about how little he gets paid.
