(A variation on my response to my boss during the annual United Way campaign: "If it ain't gettin' done with half of my salary already going to the Government, then the problem's not on my end.")

LOL. They can have my 4000 hours when they pry my kids from my cold dead hands. ;-)

Thanks for the ping, exodus. So glad I read this before retiring to bed for the night. Now, I'll have nightmares about this socialistic dictator, who cannot invent enough ways, fast enough, to grow this federal government into a grotesque monstrosity. Much better to spend a portion of your life in enslavement to the government than to be actually producing something. Just another ice-pick in the productivity of America.

His vision must be to financially ruin this country, so that we will be weakened enough to surrender our sovereignty and submit to a bailout by the IMF/World Bank/ and the coming globalist government.

I'd be happy to volunteer my time if my federal income taxes were slashed over 50% from $20,000/year to $10,000/year. Also I'd like my state income taxes to be slashed from $5,000/year to $0/year. Uncle Sam...give me the option to OPT OUT of Social InSecurity as well and I'll be happy to volunteer since I know then I'll be well on my way to financial independence.

You are here to serve your government. Government is not here to serve you. This is all just part of a plan to make people realize that their leisure time isn't their own and that they "owe" their government more than their hard-earned money. Bush is just picking up on what that socialist pig Clinton promulgated. We're all going to be absorbed into the collective.

Check out this site. It has to do with School-to-Work programs but it shows how public education will be changed from teaching academics to training worker bees for government and big business. Mandatory volunteering in schools is just the beginning.
