In any case, anecdotes do not and cannot disprove the actual statistics.

Also, if you live in a country that actually respects intelligence, I’d HOPE your teachers are actually paid well.

In dying rural areas in the US teachers are generally some of the best paid. Its mostly in cities where their pay lags. But no, they live in the US in LA(CA, not the state). Also, FYI just because I live in one country doesn’t mean its the same my grandparents live in.

  Ahh yes, California, a state that pays more, AND in LA, where wages are WAY higher because cost of living is way higher…,
  
  Thank you for describing why your anecdote is an outlier and DEFINITELY doesn’t prove any norm.

    Where did I say it was the norm??? You called someone a liar for giving an anecdote. Outliers do happen…

    They’re a liar for attempting to use an anecdote to disprove a trend. That’s basic, basic manipulation.
