Well, I wouldn't go that far (cf. my example above on the pay differential between the oldest profession and the second-oldest profession) But it does at least set prices in a way which both buyer and seller agree on.

You have a way to let teachers make substantially larger wages? Let's hear it:-)

Private tutor?

What's stopping teachers from being private tutors now?

Good question

[rhelz]

The answer is that being a private tutor, on average, pays even less than they make now.

You know how I know that? Because they aren’t already doing that.

How many families could afford the salary of even one teacher?
