Unless she is a sub she is most likely making way more than 14 an hour. Still not enough to deal with what most teachers deal with on a daily basis.

I really hope so. I have no idea what the average wages are for teachers, but I know its not enough.

I've found this

Seems to equate to roughly 17 to 23 an hour. Still not enough.

Definitely not. These people are shaping the future of our country, they should be compensated as such. Meanwhile there's people who sit in their private offices making 100x's as much just for dictating what others do. The system is cancerous and requires intervention.

Yes but I'd say the system is acting exactly how "They" want it to. Better educated children is not something I think America wants.

Agreed. It's what I want and I'd say what the "people" want. But "they" know it's easier to stay in power when the " people" aren't capable of asking questions or standing up for themselves.
