If Obama is elected, this will end "individualism". What is it going to be ? When I take vacation, will I have to get approval from the bureaucrats and have some kind of "societal benefit" requirement clause ?

With the person mentioning on why work hard when you get more taken. Could this tie to Michelle Obama's comment of "you will be required to work..." so that way you are forced to work hard even though you get no additional benefit from the required extra effort. Instead of the extra effort, you could be at home enjoying quality leisure time including family time.

Back on vacation, I am sure leisure time will be assaulted even more. I remembered working for a liberal democrat manager and he didn't like anyone taking vacation except for his select few favorite boys.

Now on college. One common item is it has gotten expensive. Instead of finding ways to pay the more and more expensive price tag, there needs to be ways to make it cheaper. One thing I remembered, the college I went to had a hefty price tag. Also, a lot of "in house" grants were provided to "less fortunate" students. Kind of a charade. Universities should not be taking any money in it's budget to subsidize less fortunate students, therefore, they can have a lower tuition bill. Another item from my college, they had so many "expensive" administrators. Maybe it is time to reexamine the usefulness of these top heavy executives and staff with them as well.

Now that obtaining a college education (or at least a college degree)has become a basic right, our institutions of “higher” learning will find ways to absorb as much money as the federal government makes available, and woefilled tales in the press about the impossibly high costs of college tuition will keep the pressure on.

That will be provided by the "Strength Through Joy Act of 2009".

See your local Reichskommisar for details.
