re: #130 Girth
It wasn’t that long ago where the prevailing sentiment that I heard about teachers was that they should be receiving substantially higher salaries, but since everyone is more interested in getting re-elected rather than actually dealing with our problems, fuck it, let’s blame the teachers.
I don’t have figures at hand, but I believe teachers in other industrialized countries are generally paid better, not to mention far less likely to be demonized for political reasons.
