Is this the change you really voted for? President Obama has only been in office for two months. Now we have HR 1388. The Bill was sponsored by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) with 37 others. The Bill was introduced to the floor of the House of Representatives where both Republicans and Democrats voted 321-105 in favor. Next it goes to the Senate for a vote and then on to President Obama.
This bills title is called Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE). It forms what some are calling Obamas Youth Brigade. Obamas plan is require anyone receiving school loans and others to serve at least three months as part of the brigade. His goal is one million youth! This has serious Nazi Germany overtones to it.

Can you say “Hitlerjugend”? I knew you could.
Skimmed over it, is this correct: If someone gets student loans, they have to serve a minimum of 3 months of mandatory volunteer service, and they cannot partipate or even think about any religious activities during their confinement?

This is the same group that might have supported midnight basketball in the 90’s.
I’ve skimmed the bill, it’s another leftie boondoggle with better funding (bailout trickle-down $$$$) but nothing to be exceptionally feared.
I’m totally against this program and legislation, but it seems inaccurate to claim that it’s prohibiting participants from attending church. From my reading, the bill simply declares that religious activities do not qualify as “volunteering” under the terms of the program.
the only problem with those images is people think they’re a joke
No doubt with significant brain washing as part of the 3 months.
links not working for me.
I can’t pull up the site. What part of the bill prohibits church attendance? What does it say?

Oh! But Islam advocates murdering unbelievers and terrorism so that would be allowed unlike judaism and Christianity which would be outlawed under the new regime.
Whats short for National Civilian Community Corps?

True - but eventually they will get the point across

I think your right, but it is still wrong....
Section 125 (42 U.S.C. 12575) is amended to read as follows:
SEC. 125. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.
(a) Prohibited Activities- A participant in an approved national service position under this subtitle may not engage in the following activities:
(1) Attempting to influence legislation.
(2) Organizing or engaging in protests, petitions, boycotts, or strikes.
(7) Engaging in religious instruction, conducting worship services, providing instruction as part of a program that includes mandatory religious instruction or worship, constructing or operating facilities devoted to religious instruction or worship, maintaining facilities primarily or inherently devoted to religious instruction or worship, or engaging in any form of religious proselytization.

I am now of the opinion that the communists won the Cold War.
This has serious Nazi Germany overtones to it. ....................... Oh? Do my grand children have to mandatory register for the Young Folk at age 8? Looks like they’re trying to get a little work out of those getting $$ for education. Too much BS going around about his, too much over reacting. I can’t see anything like a Hitler Youth movement happening anywhere in the USA, either on the right or the left. All this is Chicken Little garbage.
