i believe that teachers are one the most underpaid jobs. if you honestly think, where would all the doctors be, or the surgeons be if there were no teachers? Teachers are one of the most important jobs u can have, so y do they have such low wages.

wat do u think bout this topic?

I do think teachers are underpaid.
In fact, I think many jobs are underpaid.
I also think a lot of jobs are overpaid.

I think the salery of jobs needs to be reorganized.

...But I don't think this place would be exactly the place to talk about it.

Anywayz:

Yeah, I think teachers are underpaid. Think about what they do for you. They have to memorize everyones name, and be responsible for them, at a certain extent.
And obviously they educate you. Educate you for your dream job, or whatever job, which may even pay better than they're job.

And if the teacher sucks? Then you are probably a pain to the teacher. Just another thing teachers have to go through. Heck, the teachers that "suck" might even deserve get paid more, having to put up with misbehaving kids. (or... maybe not... if they're not good at educating you, and making you learn.)

If paying the teachers more would lower the economy... then that goes back to my point of some jobs being overpaid, and maybe lowering the salary of some jobs.

Voila, my opinion.
