I strongly disagree at least at the college level as teaching at the college level in math, sciences or economics pays very well and the teaching aspect of the job are not that strenuous. The difficulty is that the jobs are very politicized. The political climate of the Universities (not talking democrat/republican) nixes more teachers then the "salary".

If you examine it, many professors teach little more then one or two courses a semester. Much of there time is spent getting grants, writing papers etc. I have watched in both public and private universities as excellent teachers are refused teaching jobs even at assistant professorship levels and seen poor teachers (but very smart with great credentials, aka papers etc) walk write thru.
