Spot on in California a teacher can earn 35.00 to$45.00 an hour for teaching K1 to 12 grades not bad work if you can get it.
It is terrible, in my state a 74 yr old man has been running the teachers union since I was a child (a long time ago), he’s also a prominant democrat. I heard on the radio this morning that he has such a stranglehold on the state that he actually sits in on legislature sessions and gives thumbs up or thumbs down on laws that impact all of the citizens of our state. It is disgusting.
