Eh, I'd say there are more disagreeing with me than not.

So you probably shouldn't paint with that broad of a brush.

Also, I'm not anti-teacher, just against hearing how brave teachers are for sacrificing so much to shape young lives, then having them spend so much of their time complaining about it.

I recognize this doesn't apply to all teachers, but there are enough that it's an issue.

If being anti teacher means you don't think it is the hardest job then yes I'm anti teacher.

1. You don't have to 2. Teachers chose their profession knowing the salaries

I wish we could stop with this ignorance. Other countries pay teachers well

What is "well" and what are these countries?

The problem is that those states that pay more don't have better results than UT

Teaching Primary ≠ teaching school.

I read that assuming he was talking primary school, meaning elementary school.

Teachers are public employees - which means the voting public (us) have a say

Teachers Unions do nothing for teachers, at least in the State of Utah.

That's not true. They get in the way of good teaching and take their money.
