That struck me as pretty disingenuous too, considering how lightly he glossed over the real-world problem of "labor as a cost of doing business" mentality that has shifted teaching toward adjunct staff members. It's almost like he doesn't care those starting out in their career, who would likely become the next generation of great teachers at a reasonable price are pretty much being shoved into poverty from the get-go. No intelligent, worthwhile teacher/professor can withstand that kind of lack of support all while being fed lines about how "we have to cut costs" like the examples mentioned.
