Honestly, what a joke.

I am not sure where you are getting your information but you are very misinformed unless you are talking about collegiate level only or something (or if Canada is really that different than the US)
Iowa is decent on pay and they are nowhere close to 6 figures (try half that).
They work more than 7 hours a day.
I am not sure what you mean by no childcare costs, do you think teachers get free childcare, or are you saying when the kids are in school their schedules will overlap and reduce the cost for a few years?
I think they are paid well for what they do and the ability it takes to be a teacher... but you are completely over exaggerating it.
