OH NOES! Paying teachers is eating up your districts educational budget! LOL, I wish every district had this "problem".
Should we adjust the salary of doctors or engineers to adjust for the local average A Theist, is there something inherently wrong when either of these professionals earn wages much higher than the local average (if not then why does it bear mention in the case of teachers)? Let's not forget that you actually have to spend some time in college to be a teacher, if we want people to become educators when they could just as easily get a degree in the business, engineering, or medical fields we have to make the compensation competitive (which it is not btw). That -some- private educators make less than public educators isn't surprising bud, a private school is business. That business is most likely -not- in the business of making it's employees money.......
(teachers unions can be a pain in the ass for alot of reasons, so I'm told (by teachers, no less), but trying to get teachers paid - probably not the best example.)

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
