I'm pretty sure Cal has such a program... I'm not sure it's for all level of
teacher. I'll ask my friend.

Actually, they do to a large extent. Many teachers spend their
own money on
supplies that the schools should, but don't supply.

Yes, it will work. You have to give people a living wage
that's
somewhere
close to the value they contribute to society. Teachers
should
not have to
pay for their own supplies, for example.


They don't.

You are correct about this point, Jon, but it's not universal. The poorest
rural and inner city schools often don't have the resources to provide what
some teachers consider mandatory for their classes in terms of supplies.
There are good resources--some published by the DOE--detailing just how
financially deficient some school systems are in impoverished areas. Some
schools don't have enough funds for textbooks for each student, let alone
school supplies. But most do.
