Teachers are expensive ? I wonder what world you re living on. Teachers are one of the least paid / hardest working people around, and so critical to our future I wonder why they aren t being paid MORE so more people would go into the field. American Federation of Teachers (AFT) says in 2006-7 average teacher is being paid $51009. That s before the crisis . That s about on par with a decent executive assistant s salary, a job with far less scrutiny by a TON of people, from school to government to parents, and far less off-job hours (homework grading, etc.).
Hey why not start outsourcing students.
