Answer 1

Go for nursing.  Check out the schools and the programs.  Many hospitals are actually paying the tuition for nursing students who will work at their hospitals for x many years.  There is a critical nursing shortage in the US so you will have more job opportunities, better wages, etc.  Also, you wont have high student loans.  Many school districts are cutting teachers b/c of budget issues.  

Answer 2

Nursing definately pays more.

Answer 3

nursing get paid more unless you have a really really high degree and experience

Answer 4

You would get paid more for nursing.  But you should never get a job just for the money!  You should choose the one you like the most because it's so much better to be happy where you work and make a moderate salary than to hate your job but get good pay.
