It has been a while since I've posted a Daily Congressional, highlighting bills that are slipping under the radar, but this one seemed pretty important to post.

Given the number of socialists that are sponsoring this bill, it has to be bad.

Proving, I suppose, that Democrats’ only real objection to slavery is reserved for cases where it is not racially diverse, and the slaves are privately owned.

They might want to reread Amendment 2 before trying to erase 13.

What a way with words they have! Doesn’t “volunteerism” lose its meaning when it becomes “mandatory?” Perhaps we should coin a new word . . . . . how about “mandateerism?”

“mandatory service” is another word for “forced conscription” or perhaps “involuntary servitude”. the bottom line “Slavery” with treh government as the master.

Unconstitutional. Doesn’t mean 0bama et.al. won’t implement it.

strengthen the social fabric of the Nation and overcome civic challenges by bringing together people from diverse economic, ethnic, and educational backgrounds.

how such a requirement could be implemented in a manner that would strengthen the social fabric of the Nation and overcome civic challenges by bringing together people from diverse economic, ethnic, and educational backgrounds.

Conscripting middle class kids and sending them into the war zone of Detroit to strenghten the "social fabric".

This bill is inane. So perhaps the way to stop it is with inanity.

First, an alternative name.

How about “Putting Black and Hispanic Children To Work Act”?

Black and Hispanic parents would like that, the government providing work for their children to perform instead of idling their time away, getting into mischief, hanging out all day playing games, and things like that. No more drugs, teenage pregnancy, gangs, being arrested and sent to jail, but strictly hard labor in uniforms, and learning how to be productive citizens.

In a pigs eye. Black and Hispanic parents would be up in arms, and screaming loudly.

Maybe call it the “Reeducation For Slavery Reparations Act”?

With a catchy slogan, like “Work Makes Reparations”, over the gate of the “campuses”. American descendants of slaves can get the full experience of what plantation slavery was like, doing such things as hoeing and picking cotton, living in compounds and practicing all such manner of slave lore. After some years of mastering this education, they might receive reparations for the slavery that their ancestors endured, equivalent to today’s prevailing minimum wage. Top graduates may even be hired to oversee undergraduate study.

Sounds like the subjects of this experiment will be put on buses and shipped around to some kind of diverse economic and ethnic re-education camps.

I believe it's been done through something called the "re-education camp."

Some days, it's really hard to believe we are the same species as these varmints.
