00:00:00.210 --> 00:00:02.920
- People who handle the hearts and minds

2
00:00:02.920 --> 00:00:04.420
of America's children

3
00:00:04.420 --> 00:00:06.170
deserve much more.

4
00:00:06.170 --> 00:00:07.409
Much more respect,

5
00:00:07.409 --> 00:00:09.213
much more money,

6
00:00:09.213 --> 00:00:12.010
much more support by their country,

7
00:00:12.010 --> 00:00:15.170
their community, and their administration.

8
00:00:15.170 --> 00:00:16.810
(cheerful music)

9
00:00:16.810 --> 00:00:20.480
- In a perfect world, teachers
would have a salary of?

10
00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:21.750
- In a perfect world,

11
00:00:21.750 --> 00:00:23.810
teachers would have a starting salary

12
00:00:23.810 --> 00:00:25.958
of at least $100,000.

13
00:00:25.958 --> 00:00:27.570
- I was gonna say that, the magic number.

14
00:00:27.570 --> 00:00:31.470
- At least $100,000.

15
00:00:31.470 --> 00:00:34.120
First of all, they're
carrying student debt,

16
00:00:34.120 --> 00:00:36.310
they are working at it,

17
00:00:36.310 --> 00:00:39.460
they're doing something that
most people can never do,

18
00:00:39.460 --> 00:00:41.770
that's taking care of
your children every day,

19
00:00:41.770 --> 00:00:42.676
teaching your children every day,

20
00:00:42.676 --> 00:00:43.511
teaching your children.

21
00:00:43.511 --> 00:00:44.344
- And they're spending

22
00:00:44.344 --> 00:00:45.177
their own money sometimes to buy--

23
00:00:45.177 --> 00:00:46.010
- Very often.

24
00:00:46.010 --> 00:00:47.400
A lot of people don't
know that don't know that,

25
00:00:47.400 --> 00:00:49.640
but very often there are so many schools

26
00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:52.130
across America that are underfunded

27
00:00:52.130 --> 00:00:54.600
where teachers do not have the money to

28
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:57.010
give their students the things that a lot

29
00:00:57.010 --> 00:00:59.830
of other kids have across this country.

30
00:00:59.830 --> 00:01:01.920
- Absolutely. I couldn't
have said it better myself.

31
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:02.753
- Thank you.

32
00:01:02.753 --> 00:01:03.586
Thank you so much.

33
00:01:03.586 --> 00:01:04.419
- That's just how I feel.
