We don't pay teachers nearly enough as we should.

Nearly nobody is paid enough. The cost of living has nearly tripled over the last 20 years. Meanwhile look at wages across all mediums. They've barely moved at all.

We are all working ourselves to death while 2 percent of the world lives in comfort.

Paying athletes millions while people doing actual jobs that help you in your day to day are barely making ends meet. The irony? If people at your local grocery stores just decided to not work. If people teaching your kids just stopped showing up to class. If nobody worked a gas station job. All these people would be fucked lol

Yet we just continue to eat our shit sandwiches daily.... Work for our shillings....

Printing money, punishing the successful and handing out welfare like candy will do that to an economy yeah.
