Hum yes starting salaries are low and so are ending saleries. I would be making less than half if I had stayed a teacher. So 1/2/ of 1/2 is 1/4 and that is darn poor.
Starting salaries are poor, because that is what society is willing to pay and what teachers are willing to accept. Usually because the teacher is the second wage earner.

Everyone accepts that teachers do this more for the love of teaching than for the money. I remember Jerry Brown saying how I was being paid well becasue of the psychic dollars I was getting as a teacher. You know I just couldn't pay my taxes in psychic dollars.
