Andre LaRenzie, Epilogue, Question #6

The final passage of "Naked Economics" includes the author, Charles Wheelan, talking about what the future of the American Economy will look like. He touches on 7 different topics including poverty, future debt of America, and the economy possibly solving social issues. Narrowing in on the social issues, he raises the topic of teaching salary. America does not reward teachers for how well or how poorly they teach their subject. Also, because of this, teachers are highly over educated and highly under appreciated with salaries, especially when we live in a nation that is founded upon schooling. I found this passage interesting because I have agreed with this topic. Teachers should be judged on how well they teach, or how poorly. Then teachers have incentives to help build the youth of this nation. Wheel an hopes that social issues like this will be fixed in the future, and I will be hoping for the same. Mr. Hoffner's salary would be high based off of his teaching ability obviously. (Insert 10 extra credit points)
