> Too many important jobs in society require lots of education but don't pay well enough to actually cover living expenses and loans. Think counselors, educators, even nursing is moving in this direction.

Are these professions immune from supply and demand?

At some point organizations just can't afford to pay what they need to survive. We might have plenty of teachers if pay started at $90/yr, but since no school can afford to pay that much, we are stuck with whatever the supply is at below market wages.

Which is exactly my point: most of these jobs will go unfilled and the workloads will be passed onto those who've stuck around -- and they won't earn more money because of it.
