There is no higher religion than human service. To work for the common good is the greatest creed. Woodrow Wilson (and his worship of the STATE)
Way back when, during the campaign, Obama made the declaration that America needs a national civilian security force, that is just as strong and just as well funded as the military.
Well, folks, here it comes.
The Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act, known as the GIVE Act -- sponsored by Reps. Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y, and George Miller, D-Calif. -- was approved by a 321-105 vote and now goes to the Senate.

I skimmed thru the bill. There is a provision for Mentoring. What if the Pubbies were smart enough to make this mean that kids could be mentored by successful business people to learn what it takes to be successful in a Capitalist society. Might short circuit a lot of this Socialism.
I wouldn’t have kids in this country, and if I did, I’d move them to another country and raise them there.
A rose by any other name... still has thorns.
[The Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act]
What a riot, especially with Repubs voting in favor. There is a website called http://www.nationalciviliansecurityforce.com
Are you freaking KIDDING me???
How is forced work for the state VOLUNTEERING??? I will leave the country before giving my children up to such "service."
I am glad you get it. We definitely need some kind of hook to get the public against this bill.
“Do these people have ANY idea what theyre saying?”
No. Most Dem members of Congress - especially the Representatives - are barely literate and hardly able to complete a sentence or express a coherent thought.
The mothers must know that the teenager who goes off to these indoctrination centers will come back an individual who likely will be something other than her child. She must fear that she will never be able to redeem them.
What a pathetic example of the name fitting an earlier-conceived acronym.
Universities are bad enough. Yes, we need to worry the parents. This is pure indoctrination. I can almost see Obama thinking, “So they mocked my ‘community organizing,’ did they?? Well, pretty soon the whole country will be doing it!”
Already there is “mandatory” volunteering or community service in order to graduate from high school, and you would be amazed at the lazy and not altruistic ways the kids fulfill that.
You cannot FORCE people to “give.” That is called “take.”
A National Service bill could contain numerous caveats in the fine print to coerce the public to obey.
Well reach this goal in several ways. At the middle and high school level, well make federal assistance conditional on school districts developing service programs, and give schools resources to offer new service opportunities.
Schools that require service as part of the educational experience create improved learning environments and serve as resources for their communities. Moreover, in his Plan, he promises to develop national guidelines for service-learning and community service programs, thus not leaving the content of service programs to the states.
The Volokh Conspiracys Jim Lindgren: it would be the public schools that would impose federal standards of coerced service on each child as part of their requirements for graduation. For students, service would be involuntary. Even for the public schools, their participation would be only nominally voluntary for how many public schools can survive without federal assistance?

It sounds like he’s calling for a war, black against whites. He better be careful what he asks for. Do the math mf’er.
When his programs begin to stall as eventually they must, look for Obama to really play the fear card.

Watch for the puppy the his kids have been asking to have for years. He’s waiting until he really needs a distraction. When the dog arrives, pay close attention to what is going in behind the scenes.
WILL YOU PEOPLE PLEASE GET IT RIGHT!
WE HAVE TO SCREAM SCREAM SCREAM AT THE SENATE. EMAILS TO FOLLOW....

THANK YOU!!! I am amazed and the joking here and the fact that so many seem resigned that it will happen. I am so close to just moving, permanently and never coming back.
We definitely need some kind of hook to get the public against this bill.
___________
NOW!! We have no time to waste.
Well, can we at least give the ‘volunteers’ a catchy name?
Like “Hitler Youth”
Or “Young Communists”
Or “Dear Leader’s Youth Brigades”
That any House Repubs voted yes, is highly disturbing.
What did they get promised by Obama?
Pack of smokes and a bottle of wino’s delight?
You know, what the typical Dem voter sells his vote for..
