I remember when teachers were complaining about making 24k a year in the last decade. (I'm just saying, not being contrarian)

"complaining" is a bad term. Being a teacher requires a bachelor's degree and often extra schooling on top of that. It's the equivalent of a professional with a degree and industry certifications. Where I live, a degree and certs is enough to get 70K straight out of school and easily over 100k after a few years of experience. There's absolutely no reason that teaching shouldn't pay any less than what someone with similar education would be able to get in industry.
