teachers are not critical....
we could go days and weeks and months and even years without teachers...
life would go on.
nurses...doctors....policemane...fireman....these people are not only important, but ESSENTIAL...
take away them for a day or two and everything would shut down in a hurry....people would die...families devastated...anarchy abounding.........
so where is my $100,000????
Take away teachers long enough and there wont be nurses...doctors....fireman and as you put it "..policemane."
