[Dems2008] Re: What's out of whack?

I have no problem with paying teachers earning the same or more. Your
figures might be on the high side for factory workers but I think that
you also underestimate the skill required for many manufacturing jobs.
Just as a lot of folks underestimate the demands of being a school
teacher, manufacturing is much more complex and high-tech than many
might assume. Machinist jobs can be quite complex and involve using
computer programs to do very precise work. Your higher paying
manufacturing jobs are not positions that any idiot could do.
