Obama urges citizens to undertake national service

Obama urges citizens to undertake national service: "WASHINGTON – Calling on Americans to volunteer, President Barack Obama signed a $5.7 billion national service bill Tuesday that triples the size of the AmeriCorps service program over the next eight years and expands ways for students to earn money for college. 'What this legislation does, then, is to help harness this patriotism and connect deeds to needs,' said Obama, a former community organizer in Chicago.

'It creates opportunities to serve for students, seniors and everyone in between,' he said. 'And it is just the beginning of a sustained, collaborative and focused effort to involve our greatest resource — our citizens — in the work of remaking this nation.'"

This is the plan that Obama wants to make mandatory for all citizens of the United States of America from junior high school on. College students will be required to do hundreds of hours for this program of indoctrination.
Meanwhile it will cost more than if they just gave each student the money free to go to college.

Parents, do you want the government demanding your child go with them for 3 months and teaching them what they see fit no matter what your views? This is exactly what this bill is setting up for now.
