Teachers are overpaid. They work less than anyone else, they have high pay for not doing anything. Its the easiest job. You work 5 days a week, you have Winter vacation and Summer vacation off, you have all holidays off and your job requires u to mostly sit and explain things. They are OVERPAID and entitled and most of teachers out their frustrations on students. Defund them if they don’t wanna work, they are too much paid for not working.

We make about $30-40 an hour depending on experience and education. But that’s just for the hours “on the job.” This doesn’t include planning and grading and whatever else might need to be done before or after school. And this isn’t all year round. We work 190 days for 8 hours a day. How much do you think we should get? Minimum wage? $15/hr?
I’ll agree that shitty teachers are overpaid. Good ones aren’t. In fact, I’d be all for making teaching more competitive and easier to be fired. Shit teachers are common, unfortunately. But, the truly good ones are invaluable.
And look, I’m not a great teacher. In fact, I’ve been trying to leave the profession for a while now. But I do my job. When my wife finally graduates from college, I think I’m done. I just want you to understand that if you haven’t actually spent a day with 30 kids trying to teach them the Pythagorean theorem, then shut the fuck up.
