Clinton announces ‘National Service Reserve’ for millennials
Yahoo! News ^ | Sept. 30, 2016 | Liz Goodwin

Hillary Clinton announced Friday that she wants to enlist 5 million new volunteers into a “national service reserve” aimed at 18- to 30-year-olds.

“What if we strengthen the culture of service in America? So it wasn’t just something we did one day a year, but it became a regular part of our lives,” she asked in a Florida rally on the topic of national service Friday.

The former secretary of state argued that her volunteer plan would help combat growing self-segregation in America, where people surround themselves with people who think, talk, look and read the same news as them. “That comes with a cost, it magnifies our differences,” she said, adding that the election has drawn attention to that trend.

Clinton also wants to expand AmeriCorps, a paid-service organization, from 75,000 members to 250,000, and expand the Peace Corps

“What is the penalty for not volunteering?
You know there will be one.”

The penalty is free Obama Care

Agreed. If the brainwashing is successful it will start winning elections for the Democrats in 15-20 years. Not in November.

Her mouth is moving but nothing is coming out. She’s talking to hear herself talk. Spewing nothing. Blah, blah, blah.

It appears that the membership in her organization would not be paid, or at most a small stipend and maybe some free college and college credits.

This is all we need. Younger adults putting their careers on hold for this half baked idea. And granting college credits is a bad idea. Our kids need to be better educated, not less educated. They need more class time, not less.

It probably would be better to not mention this at all. The comments are not kind.

I continue to be amazed just how out of touch with normal people Hillary is. She has no idea what is going on outside the beltway. Not the whisper of a clue.

So they’ll re-build the bridges

Who would want to cross a bridge built by slacker millennials?

Probably not “voluntary” at all but mandatory -— because who WANTS to volunteer for a country that gives this criminal a pass but bears down so hard on its citizens??

The Socialists / Democrats have always been in support of enslaving the masses.

Obama promoted this very idea in his first acceptance speech with the Greek columns as back drop.

How did he put that? An “army”, or some synonym of the word. It remained fuzzy, but then as our population was transformed before our eyes, we can get the picture.

No wonder has brought in “the children” of South American socialism.
