To me the only real big upside of being a teacher is a nice DB pension plan and i suppose the extra time off in summer, christmas and a spring break - otherwise, they are likely working just as hard as someone making a similar salary in private sector

Your 'otherwise' amounts to way more vacation than almost anyone and a pension that is literally worth 7 figures.
No small potatoes.
I don't begrudge them for that and think the decent teachers are more than worth it. Unfortunately the useless ones reap the exact same rewards.
Also, totally CP that a stupid Daniell Smith vote grab circled around to the age old teacher debate.
