And they're doing the work, of two people,

This would make sense in a different line of work. But they're 5th grade teachers. They're teaching one class. That is the job of one person.

But they're not, one person. Understand?

They're two people. Doing the job, who are joined.

Conceptually, I need you to understand, that's two people, who are working.

And that our concepts of fair pay,

Apply to both of them.

What you're saying, is that if I take two fifth grade teachers.... And put a big jumper on them and don't let them take them off...

I can half their pay.

That, is Stephen King levels of dystopia.

I suggest, that we decide, that everyone, deserves fair pay.

And that's even, if they're not as productive, as you want. Fair work, fair pay. For everyone.

Yes Mr Condescending, I get that. No one is questioning if they're 1, 2, or 3 people.

hey're two people. Doing the job, who are joined.

Correct. The job. Singular. The job that pays 1 teacher to perform.

The job, which they both do. All teachers, do "the job" of teaching.

That doesn't mean, you can split a salary between them all, does it?

They're both working. That's the truth.

And if they're both working, they both get fair pay.
