23 year old defensive backs make $6 million a year. the lady that teaches your kid geometry makes $45k

Millions of people pay money to watch that 23-year-old play a game. No one but maybe one or two parents will want to watch your teacher lady yell at a pile of kids.

Thousands of people pay too much money to wear a Chinese copy of his jersey. No one's gonna pay to wear your teacher's outfit.

Companies pay big $$ to have their logos and ads around his team. If a company started putting their logo in a school, everyone would be whining about it, liberals and conservatives.

It is what it is. Some people value their kids education enough to pay good money for it, while others see it as a free daycare. But when schools don't make millions of dollars, they certainly can;t pay their teachers a million dollar salary.
