Increase pay. That's a huge part of it. My wife's 11 years in at her school district and she's making just over $60k. While her pay has never dramatically increased in any single year, the cost of health insurance has quadrupled since she started. Over a decade later her total compensation has remained essentially flat after you factor that in. It's insane.
