So?....How much respect should we have for those that continue to teach in and run the government indoctrination camps?

My action?

I shun them.

Would you say the same for doctors who continue to work in Obamacare?

As with any profession, a person joins that profession initially because they love the work. Some will be forced out because of the cultural and political climate.

Teachers may not agree with what’s going on, just like some doctors who remain in their profession.

Honestly, I hope you are not a teacher. A teacher should know a little bit about the health industry and how it is funded. If education were delivered in a manner similar to medicine we would immediately see a dramatic improvement in student learning and **safety**.

Re: Doctors

Relatively few doctors work directly for the government, unlike teachers. Although the **private** insurance that pays ( except for medicaid and medicare) them is highly regulated by the government, most doctors work in private settings and organize themselves into private practices.

Last time I checked when doctors commit malpractice they are sued **big time**! When this happens it is reported to the medical licensing board and they seriously risk losing their license to practice and/or their hospital privileges. They also risk losing the ability to buy malpractice insurance. Few doctors want to do go through that, and also they are under the scrutiny of other doctors and the hospital that grants them privileges.

It is this system of multiple check guards that makes our system of mostly privately delivered medical care among the safest and most advanced in the world.

So?....How does this apply to teaching?

Imagine if teachers organized themselves into private practices in a manner similar to attorneys, CPA’s, dentists, physical therapists, optometrists, and physicians.

Experienced teachers would be the owner/partners and would make the big bucks. They would hire newly graduated associates. They would supervise the work of the associates and the best would later buy the practice or become partners.

Teachers are not very bright. If they **really** wanted to make money in the 6 figures, they would **act** like professionals and organize themselves like other real professionals do.
