No, these items are essential for social organization. For instance,
teachers feel they have a higher calling, so they are willing to
sacrifice the financial potential of their education for a career in
teaching.

No points there. Teachers are paid very handsomely for a fairly easy
4-year degree.

Yeah...about that.

I'm thinking the 40K my wife made for eighty-hour weeks doesn't qualify for
any useage of "handsomely" I've ever heard. Closer to "McDonalds."
