A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

I'm not disputing that and I'm not saying that teachers shouldn't be paid more. You're missing what I am saying. I am simply stating that if money is a consideration (and it is for just about everyone), then you should be looking up what jobs pay in a certain field before you even start your studies. And this goes for more than just teaching. I hear this all the time of how people are surprised that X field pays like shit.... well how the fuck did you get through 2 or 4 or more years of school and not look up what the job prospects are?!?
