They already know about the summers off, trust me. Your campaign would be wasted money.
And again, you seem to think basic economics of supply and demand don't apply because YOU consider teachers to already be overpaid. My father likes to rail against the campaign to raise minimum wage, because he thinks "the dumb burger flippers" don't DESERVE $15 an hour. I feel like I'm beating a dead horse when I have to remind him that it doesn't matter a damn lick what he thinks their talents "deserve." The fact that restaurants can't get enough people to come work for them for $10/hr, by default, means they're worth more than that simply by laws of supply and demand. I'd make the same argument for teachers.
