Probably don't need to pay them as well because they aren't considered teachers.

I thought teachers aren't paid well in the US? Aren't most people complaining that they get far too little money?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Yes and the bit here is that they'd be getting paid even less after losing the 'teacher' designation.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

They are paid more than zero, therefore this is an opportunity to pay them less I suppose ha ha. Capitalism.

Yes, exactly. So even less than that.
