There’s so much wealth and demand for housing, prices have gone way up and put even more financial stress on the very people who help power the economic engine. “You have 36 kids in class and that’s a lot of influence and you can make their lives better,” Johnson said.

I remember when a couple that were both LA Unified teachers could afford a house in Sherman Oaks south of the Boulevard. Now that can't even afford rent? How do we expect to continue to attract quality teachers if we are not willing to pay them like we value education?

No money in teaching anymore.
As soon as they join the union they'll be set for life. Time to outlaw public sector unions to stop political corruption and give the taxpayers a break.
But, but CA has the world's fifth largest economy!
