According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still -- when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.

Not really. You have to wonder about countries that think it's ok to reward people with the work of others for doing... What again? Just existing? Seems like free food leads to confined circumstances. That is something the US knows all too well. The US currently gives food away simply because you exist. Guess what that, without competent education, has led to. Drug epidemics, mass poverty, mass murder, and partridge in a pair tree. Them that work, eat.
Education is a right, does it mean that teachers are not paid?
...what?
I don't agree with the comment you are responding to, but they're not talking about teachers not getting paid they're talking about reward for not doing anything, and that reward having to come from somewhere (workers who pay their taxes). Asking if teachers get paid doesn't work here, they're paid by the taxpayers but that has nothing to do with having a fundamental right to something (the US offers a public education as a right to all citizens). Teachers don't have a fundamental right to a teaching job.
Food is not a reward, its a basic necessity.
And having a right to food does not mean the US to pay for everything just like the US does not pay for education on the rest of the world.
And ecucation IS a human right because its inscribed in the list of human rights recognized by the UN and approved by the US.
