Wealth redistribution is fun and games, until they take everything you have and also kill you and your family.

Hierarchical authority as part of private ownership is especially hilarious as the teachers make brutal decisions like taking all of Legotown away. Disowning and redistribution requires the hardest and cruelest of authorities.
Teachers are not underpaid. Teachers in the state in question make an average of $54,147. The US median income is 35K, so teachers earn far above it. Work as a couple and you're in the 100K household income zone. That's a position of privilege.
Not to mention that most people don't get to call work "philosophizing about Marxism and lego world". They have to actually work.
I don't think I've spent more than 1% of my discretionary funds on office goodies, even on my more generous months.
