I would whole heartedly agree with that.
Unfortunately it's bogged down by administrative burocracy, petty "associations" and far too much politics for it's own good. But so is the case in just about every human pursuit. Corporate offices are none the better and don't get me started about high academia.
There are many ways that teaching can be intellectually stimulating. There are studies, programs, initiatives funded by both public and private sources aimed at furthing the profession of teaching. Get involved with those in addition to the teaching career and you will probably find a far more fullfilling life then the average "business" person.
But that's just my raging opinion
