    Nah, the only people that will still be teaching will be ideological extremists and people that want to hang out with children for other reasons.

      Oof…you’re probably right to a degree. And that will make culture war polarization even worse when it comes to what is taught in public schools. It will be a sad state of things, when the majority of teachers are mere activists.

      As I understand it, the problem with teacher pay is with corruption in the school system, not the schools themselves not getting enough money. They have plenty of money, but they’re still not paying their teachers well.
