The problem with K-12 is the lack of free market economics. Think back to you H.S. years. Think of your best teacher. Now think of your worst teacher. They made the same salary.

Colleges are more free market. A good physics prof is harder to find than a good Eng Lit prof. The physics guy can make more money in the private sector. The Lit prof can't write a novel anyone wants. So the colleges pay more for the physics position.

If you mean that K-12 is a socialist system from top to bottom and doomed to follow the fate of any socialist system, then yeah.

If you mean all they need to do is pay "good teachers" (whoever gets to decide that) more and "bad teachers" less, then...

Nah.
