Median salary for a teacher in New Jersey is 75,000, not including benefits. The pension is quite generous too.

Well, the pension can be quite generous. Except
this year in California,they're looking for
$40-plus billion to shore up the teacher's retirement
system. Maybe the governor can help the teachers train
as body builders.

And, there's something that Chris Christie has highlighted recently when looking to make some state budge cuts in NJ - MOST NY teachers pay NOTHING for their health care benefits as the negotiated teacher contracts stipulate that teachers NOT bear the burden of employee contributions.

Can you imagine that in the non-government world? GM's benefits to the UAW weren't even that good.
