Because they are not the ones in power. The solution is to unionize. Teacher's unions seems to be unsuccessful as a whole (as an outsider at least). Nurses union's seem to be relatively successful in certain regions (the bay area seems like a good region. nurses make quite a bit of money here).
- BEEdwards 6y agoMy wife was a nurse with Kaiser, a nonprofit with a union and she has very little positive to say about them.
- ironman1478 6y agoYeah I don't want to cast too wide of a net. My mom is a nurse in florida and isn't unionized and adjusting for cost of living, makes basically the same as a kaiser unionized nurse and has great job security. So it is not always necessary or they don't always work. But it seems like they are great for bringing the baseline work environment up.
- jariel 6y agoTeachers have some of the most powerful Unions in the world. The Ontario Teacher's Union might be the most powerful organization in Ontario. They own major league sports teams. Nurses salary in Bay Area is $133K, national average is $80K which is pretty good.

- germinalphrase 6y agoAnecdotally, my friends who teach in Canada seem to have significantly more structural influence than I do teaching in the US. I’m not sure the landscapes are comparable. Edit: they own major league sports teams? That’s wild.
