Robert Heinlein opined that *every* teacher should have had to have served, i.e., no military service, no teaching job.

Not just that. Teaching should be second career that can’t begin until age 35. Force them to work in the real world for long enough to understand life outside a classroom.

Heinlein also held that view about citizenship and voting, IIRC.

No government job period.
Also no vote, and no ownership of real estate.
