Nobody deserves poverty, and nobody doing something that is necessary should be being paid so low that they can’t afford to live.
I often hear stories about teachers in financial trouble. It’s just completely mind-boggling that teachers in some places are unable to pay rent due to low pay, high rent and lack of school funding making them feel like they must buy their own supplies. I thought school teacher was a respected profession, and it’s certainly necessary.

At this point there should be a minimum salary for teachers specifically. The incentive structure is terrible.
