Teachers and Taxes

Hi Humans,
There are many humans who want the best education for their children, but also insist on keeping taxes low, even if it means cutting funds to education. Right now with the bad economy, public schools can keep teachers in spite of low wages, reducing benefits, and increasingly difficult work conditions because there are limited alternatives. But when the economy improves and other occupations open up to draw away those teachers, what will happen? Will the public accept further decline of the educational system? Or will they be willing to divert money from other areas to education? Or will they actually accept more taxes?
