    Strongly agree with all your points. But what would it look like to not have enough teachers, alongside laws that cap class sizes? Millions of kids would go uneducated. We would also need a strong push to add more teachers to the mix, something like actually paying people to go to school to become teachers along with good wages and benefits.

      I don’t disagree. I’ve said for a couple of decades that we need to tie the GI Bill directly to the draft and create a different form of the GI Bill specifically for public service.

      There’s plenty of ways to serve your country, not all of them have to involve killing brown people in foreign lands.
