Am I the only one who thinks “we should pay teachers more so they can afford a new profession because public education is horrible” is the wrong takeaway? Like, why not fix public education (e.g., more teacher autonomy) or at least support some voucher program so more teachers can be private school teachers?


See my reply above. I didn’t think this idea would be controversial. Working conditions should improve when the workers have other options.


"Working conditions should improve when the workers have other options."

So when the workers have not other options, working conditions can stay low?


It’s not a “should” it’s just what happens.
