Hey Americans.

Shouldn't exactly teacher be capable of sustaining the American lifestyle? Since they are prompting (read advertising /s) the values to the pupils, your children on an level matching doctrine?

Just for a reference. Full-time teachers with an academic degree earn the same amout of an IT-ler in Germany. Though our education system is one of the worst in Europe. So you should elect another idol from europe tbqh.

I know that Lemmy will blindly support this claim. My point is why did I never heard such obvious claim in the Internet yet? If you are about to reply: Go influence your politics please. We are directly influenced by your decisions.

Anyhow, I am not capable of replying to replies and assume others chime in.

Much love, A European Citizien.

sustaining the American lifestyle

TBH the "american lifestyle" is completely unsustainable and literally destroying the planet. We would be utterly doomed if the entire planet lived like the usa.

But I'm definitely not blaming teachers or any other working people very much. It's quite clear who's actually profiting (cars/oil, military, billionaires, etc.).
