The Jamaican teacher problem


 I still don't understand it. How can a profession as important as a teacher be undermined under paid for so many years?

It seems that no matter where you look, i.e. in countries al around the world the cry is the same.

There is a shortage of teachers because of the pay offered. While some will accept the pay because of a love for kids, sometimes the love grow cold. No doubt, additional compensation would only sweeten the pot.

Here is the solution I propose. Each athlete in the world should sponsor a teacher's salary. Especially those who make millions a year. Raise base salary of teachers to US$100,000.

No more teacher shortages, because the funding would be available to pay teachers. 

Call it the teacher tax. 

What do you think about my solution?
