    Except it doesn’t. The state controls the pay rate by law and people who pass those laws are also heavily invested in private education (see Devos). As a result they put more pressure on fewer teachers to push out an inferior product to drive them into private education.

    Your bullshit idealized supply and demand curves don’t work in the real world. Not when the whole market is tilted and closed off.

      Yeah, except it does in states that run properly which is why my state has some of the highest paid teachers in the entire country. Maybe leave whatever shithole state you live in if you can’t control what your legislators vote on. Or you know, get off your lazy ass and vote come next election cycle.
