Yeah, he’s so slow that he posted the sixth fastest 40 for running backs with a 4.52.That's because he's undersized and slow for NFL standards not because he went to NU

That's why Oklahoma is losing a lot of teachers to Texas. West Virginia, near where I live, loses teachers to Virginia, Pa. and Maryland because of the low W.Va. salaries.
I was using starting salaries for all including teachers where average starting salary is around $35k. But if you are going to use average salary of all graduates no matter how long out of school, fine. Then you have average overall teachers salaries averaging around $60K as well but again for an 8-9 month year rather than 12 month as other professions.Better read a little more carefully. Those are the average STARTING salaries for 2017 graduates. That is not the same as average salaries for all college graduates with a bachelor's degree. You have to buy food and housing for 12 months whatever hours you're working, so your contention that a $35,000 salary is somehow the equivalent of a $52,000 is bogus. If you really think teachers are underworked, you need to talk to more teachers.
You don't want to make 60K because you're paying higher taxes? You've got to be kidding. You think your hypothetical teacher would refuse a bump from $35,000 to $60,000 because he might have to pay more tax? C'mon, now.
As far as substitute teachers, most have generally been people who want to get into teaching or people who have retired from teaching. Even when I was doing some substitute teaching about 30 years ago and there were a lot more candidates out there, there was a severe shortage of subs in some disciplines. It's not a "different matter" if your kid gets a sub who isn't trained in the appropriate subject matter.
As I've said before, why aren't people just falling all over themselves to get into this profession where apparently you get good money and don't have to work much? I suggest it's because it isn't as simple as that. But you get what you pay for, and it's becoming more and more apparent that for a growing number of college graduates the pay is not enough.
