Not hardly -
I was paying $15 in Calif 30 years ago -
28 yrs ago, back here in Maine, when my son was going through chemo and radiation, I turned to housecleaning - and got $10 an hr.
Maine has always been lower than most states, in any profession.
If anyone is getting what you're claiming, then they must be illegals who can't say a thing about what they get - and/or they're live-ins, free rm and board.
I have family and friends all over he country - I don't know what part of the nation you get your stats from - but it doesn't jive with what I find.
I know a gal in Calif - over 10 yrs ago - hung up her psychologist's license in family practice and opened a house cleaning service because she could make more money.
Sympathy and compassion are so passé.
Isn’t prostitution just another form of collective bargaining? Do we have yet another teacher whose rights are being violated?
Would you like paper or plastic?
Ping!
Guilty!...but admittedly, easier on the eyes than the most of the prostitutes we discuss here.
Islam said she was desperate for money and originally thought she was just going to work for a dating service. She pleaded guilty on Nov. 5 and was given a suspended 90-day sentence and a $640 fine.
Islam, who was in the fifth year of her teacher career, told Fox16.com that she hopes this attention doesn’t affect her ability to find another job.
The five year McClellan math teacher says she had fallen on tough times dealing with lawsuits and bankruptcy and had just lost her part-time job.
“When you look at your check and it’s only $600 and you know your rent is $700, and the light bill is coming up and your child needs day care paid. It was a point of desperation,” says Islam.
Police say Islam posed as an escort on a website, charging $200 for a date.
Here’s what teacher Solona Islam has to say about what happened after she gave an undercover detective a naked massage.
“And I was like oh no, because that wasn’t what I was sent here to do. And then he asked and I said okay because I needed the extra money. He offered the extra money and as I was taking my clothes off, that’s when the police came in,” Islam recalls.
Islam says that date at a West Little Rock hotel came just a week after she signed on to a web-based escort service.
Her job as an Algebra teacher at McClellan High School wasn’t making ends meet for her and her toddler son once she lost her second job in retail after missing work when her child had pneumonia.

University schools of education delude themselves into believing otherwise year after year after year after....
You; her; the dog.
If you can't tell from the comments, then I'll spell it out: we all have sympathy and compassion for any man driven by such desperation as to have to resort to hiring her for sex.
IOW, we all feel for the victim, as good Conservaatives should; not for the perp.
“Solona Islam”?
Must be those bloody Amish going out a’wilding again.
Bloody Amish.
LOL!!!!!
