I agree, I have always thought our priorities as a country (if not perhaps as a species) are so messed up that we pay athletes millions to play games and pay so little to the people that are molding the minds (or at least attempting to) of our future leaders.
I think teachers should be making top dollar and would hope that would provide the very best educators for our kids. I know tenure might screw with the top dollar idea though. I just wish we placed more value on public education. Now when it comes to the cost of college I believe that is way too high.
