In 2022, 31-year-old Maggie Perkins quit her eight-year teaching job and got a job at Costco. She doesn’t regret the decision, and she’s never been happier. Here’s a look at a day in the life working at Costco.
Except it doesn’t. The state controls the pay rate by law and people who pass those laws are also heavily invested in private education (see Devos). As a result they put more pressure on fewer teachers to push out an inferior product to drive them into private education.
Your bullshit idealized supply and demand curves don’t work in the real world. Not when the whole market is tilted and closed off.
Yeah, except it does in states that run properly which is why my state has some of the highest paid teachers in the entire country. Maybe leave whatever shithole state you live in if you can’t control what your legislators vote on. Or you know, get off your lazy ass and vote come next election cycle.
Uh no… the plan seems to be to replace teachers with home schooling using automated systems that have much more controllable curriculum. There is no longer a rush to replace with real people when automation is so cheap.
Also if everyone all looked at only the job that paid well that job would no longer pay well and it would be a shitty society while everyone figured out how to live without doctors, chefs, and all kinds of other roles where constant passing of knowledge is needed to keep things running smoothly.
Yeah, that’s the advice. Just no one be a teacher. Great! Now what are all the kids going to do to get into their own fields?
Simple, all to the mines! Uranium is not gonna mine itself isn’t it? /s
That’s the beauty of supply and demand. If the supply of teachers goes down, then at some point the pay has to go up to fill that need.
