I’m a public school math teacher. He likely works harder in a day than I work in a year, he’s earned it.

I applaud you. I was a “visiting lecturer” for about 3.5 years teaching two sections per semester at a university. It was awful. I was awful. I had 21 year old kids parents calling me to complain about their grades. I can’t imagine what you have to endure.

Eh it’s not that bad. I work in a good district and I like to think I’m good at my job so I don’t have to deal with much. My previous school had me contemplating getting out though. Title 1 district with all sorts of gang issues. Was not fun.

Still….i respect educators. It’s not an easy job. I just don’t think they are entitled to rich people’s money.

Even when corporations pay taxes, they aren't the ones paying them. The consumer is paying them.

I appreciate. I agree with that sentiment as well.

I’ve never griped about my pay. I knew what I was getting into when I went this route. Would I like more money? Of course. But I think I get paid fairly for the work I do.

And today many elementary school teachers don't teach basics, but use their platform to indoctrinate liberalism.

That's not necessarily true.

You sound like a jealous little bitch

Considering the results teachers are getting- I say for about 75% of them, they are paid far more than they deserve

Corporations just pass their taxes on to the consumer, therefore they are saving Tesla buyers money.

Musk has done more for humanity and human achievement than you could imagine in your entire pathetic life. So grow up, get past your immature and petty jealousy and try to improve yourself instead of whining about life not being fair
