Teachers in the neighborhoods around me start at 50-55 and most make 70-90k

Teachers are hugely overpaid.

I looked it up and I seem to be getting wildly varying answers. I think it probably depends on how many kids are in the school board. Some say starting around $22/hr or $40k, others are saying 100k average. I figured 100k was more like a university professor. But I guess not. I wanted to be a teacher at one time, maybe I should have after all.

I don't think $30-50k is correct for Ontario larry. More like $90k on average. (in CAD obviously)



That seems like a lot. If that's true then I would say they are for sure overpaid..



In Ontario there is something called the Sunshine List that lists every public employee who makes over $100k in salary. There are tens of thousands of teachers on it. Also a fair number of bus drivers.

Problem in Ontario is that new teachers are in supply teacher hell for years because a lot of the boomers are still holding on to their jobs. A lot give up before they ever get a permanent position I think.

Yeah that's it exactly, it's certainly not that they'd have a hard time finding people to do it for a lot cheaper. 100k+ would be with working a shit ton of overtime though I think. My wife's parents were subway drivers and they own 3 houses in 2 countries.

Teachers don’t get the entire summer off. They get two months off.

Milwaukee county bus drivers routinely make over 100k the other half make 80ish.

Every highschool teacher teaching advanced placement classes in this town is making well over 100k

I would think a parent would want a person with that much influence over your child’s development to be well paid. Seems like the last place you’d want to be skimpy.

Unpopular opinions: I think that realistic violent computer games and violent movies in fact actively contribute to how shitty society is today.






I think I concur. And I would add rap music that glamorizes violence and misogyny as well.

And for the record, I'm an admitted hypocrite in this regard to some degree because I have certainly enjoyed my fair share of violent movies, video games and rap music.

I was just reading an article the other day on violent biker gangs and how there has been a large spike in new members and gangs, and the theory was the show Sons of Anarchy had a lot to do with that spike. Now it certainly could just be coincidence, but...it wouldn't surprise me.

People should worry less about what other people make or benefits they receive. A lot of Americans seem to be less motivated by improving their own situation, and more motivated by a perceived unfair  advantage other people shouldn’t be getting.

What do you think happens in a day of kindergarten? Do you think I don't have of my own influence on their development? Do you think that there is any number less than 112k that would still constitute as well paid? Did I say they shouldn't be fairly compensated for their work?

Aside from the parents, primary school teachers have more influence on a child’s development than any other adults.

Why is 112k madness? Because you’re not making $112k?

I think we need to massively deploy nuclear power to bridge the gap until Fusion takes over.

Its preferable to have a few tons of highly radioactive waste to shoot into space to spewing out gigatons of CO2 and associated combustion gases.

1 kg uranium = 10,000 barrels of oil = 7.33 thousand tons of CO2




I agree with using nuclear power, but shooting the waste into the sun? How to you get it up there? burn fuel?
