I actually don’t have a problem with that salary IF the teachers are actually competent and doing their job.
It’s the fact that these unions grant lifetime protection to lazy incompetents that really frosts me.
There is no possible way for a teacher in a government school to do anything but prop up the government. So competent is difficult to define. Are they disseminating the information their benefactors are feeding them? Teaching in government schools is impossible when 2/3 (or more) of the kids have no desire to learn. So it’s really about propagandizing a generation to support the regime. The teachers are being paid well because they’re exceeding at what they’re hired to do.
I’ve got a big problem with those salaries.
When did teachers become so elite? The majority of them are either glorified.babysitters or marxist activists.
