I am always amazed, and disheartened/disgusted, at those who think most teachers here in the US...already make too much money.

That a lot of blue-collared, mostly HS educated, often make so much more than those we trust to guide and teach our children & grandchildren to become successes in the future...tells me something is really wrong.
Many blue collared, mostly HS educated people are successful because they learned the same things in another place...LIFE.

Of course most of us value education, but most of us also value knowledge, no matter how it is acquired. Disclaimer. I have never failed to vote for a school levy.
