I'm not saying the public school system is perfect... it's very IMperfect. But I will always stand up and say something when people disagree with the fact that teachers are underpaid. This isn't about politics... it's about hard work.

I've seen both sides of the salary picture. I was in the corporate world until the tragedy at Columbine almost five years ago. My earning potential was unlimited at the time... I was on a fast corporate track. But I needed to follow my heart. I certainly don't have the lifestyle I did before, but I'm happier than I've ever been.

I'll be dang lucky if my salary goes up 4% per year for the rest of my working days. First-year engineering students would be insulted by that.
