    As a nation we must invest in education. We need to raise teacher pay to at least $60,000 a year. We need universal pre-K. We need to cancel student debt. We need to make public colleges, universities and trade schools tuition-free.

        Teachers already get benefits that other industries don't see: Tenure, summer off, health benefits, pension... Some teachers don't deserve 60K because they are lazy and show a lot of videos when they shouldn't or use the same worksheet for 20 years.

        A majority of teachers are also HIGHLY educated so they deserve to be paid high wages. It’s not a job everybody can do. We are actual “experts” at what we do. That deserves financial compensation. No matter what. We also do SO much more than “teach”

        So here's the thing for me, teachers teach, they mold our youth into the the young adults they are going to be. As our lives becoming increasingly complicated and busy, we rely on our educators to help raise our children. So we should pay them accordingly. Just because we give

        someone a more, doesn't mean you get less. And increasing the standard of living of educators means they will have more time to focus on actually educating, instead of their second job. There is nothing won't with paying teachers what they are worth.

        Teachers’ pay should be based on location. NO to cancelling student debt (it’s not fair to those who worked hard and made responsible choices! The general public should NOT be subsidizing this. This reason may end up being the single issue I don’t vote for you)

        I'm sorry, but it's what you said. It's not fair for us to wipe current debt because you paid. So did I, but I'm aware enough to realize it's the right thing to do and support it. It's a massive drag on an entire generatio. Right now we can fix that while we set up the future.

        because if the financial burden I carried. Yes, I chose to go to school, I chose to take on the debt. But I didn't have a choice in the system. Let's stop punishing new generations because we went without.
