As a military retiree with quite a few years of service, I am aware that the draft has not been around for some time.
A local community has absolutely nothing preventing them from voting to establish schools, of voting to fund them, and of voting to provide for their management.
Pursuing teaching is entirely voluntary as is pursuing a military career is entirely voluntary. The military is, of course, a much more restrictive lifestyle, but we know that going in.
I agree, and the purpose of my many posts is to persuade Freepers that this must change. Compulsory socialist K-12 schooling is a violation of their fundamental First Amendment Rights as a human and freedom of conscience. Another purpose is to warn them of the danger socialist schooling is a threat to our very existence as a free nation.
As for me, personally, I am done with socialist school teachers. No more! I will not have these people as friends and I now work to keep them out of my life as much as reasonably possible. I will not have a person for a friend who **willingly** takes a job that crushes First Amendment human rights and freedom of conscience. I will not have for a friend someone who knowingly or unknowingly is destroying our nation and undermining the faith of the nation's children.

Comparing teaching with the military is not a valid comparison:
** Education is not a fundamental service of government. Defending the borders is. We have 150,000 years of human experience as proof.
* Young men ( Note that it is men only.) register starting at age 18. Why? They do this so that if needed a draft could be quickly implemented. When has this ever been the case so that society could provide for the staffing of socialist schools?
