> charge a wealthy person more since they can afford it. With GO franchise i could charge $20 for milk to the teacher pensioner backed by my tax dollars

You think teachers are wealthy? Dude,... get some experience with reality instead of believing b.s. you read online.

Yeah, I don't know what type of world they live in. I know a lot of teachers, most of which work for 30-50k their entire lives.

After an entire life of teaching/putting up with kids, I don't think it's unreasonable for them to be rewarded with an actual retirement. It's not like their pension allows for them to buy a new car, even.

It's strange seeing this sentiment from an industry that routinely makes over six figures, many while still in their 20's or 30's.

Teachers never come anywhere close to that in their entire career.

My example is strictly NJ based. A different place 4 sure.
