The new regulations, first proposed August 31 by Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, would also revoke the government’s approval of safety training and certification taught by independent groups like 4-H and FFA, replacing them instead with a 90-hour federal government training course.

The cat's out of the bag...........by ending these programs fewer young people will go into agriculture thus forcing more family farms to be sold to the likes of Monsanto and ConAgra. It's plain and simple -- follow the money folks.

Another government takeover. The tyrants are quickly eating away at every freedom they can find, and they're moving at a record pace.
One of their targets, especially, is Americas children. They want them as far away from their parents as they can get them. Here, they'll teach the children how government farms - like in Cuba - are more reasonable than privately owned farms, and how ridiculous their parents are for thinking otherwise.

You nailed it. This is Democratic fascist corporate welfare at its finest. And I use the classic definition of “fascist” in the Mussolini sense here—a state where the means of production are left in private hands, but the government controls everything through regulation.
