"Barack Obama will require you to work."

If you are at all young, he wants you out in the community, picking up trash and the like.

I hope the people in the community will do their part and keep littering, so the young people can learn the lessons the government wants to teach them. This is a mandatory program, 50 hours a year for public middle and high school students. So that's a lot of littering we need to keep this program going. As for college students, they'll have a choice, but they "will be induced to do 100 hours of service each year at an effective salary of $40 an hour tax free." Yes, the rich will be absolved. They can go to private school and, later, blow off a $4,000 tax credit. But if they are civic-minded, they can be helpful and stroll around the community from time to time, littering.

AND: I think children are already forced to work when they are sent to school. School is work. Respect that work. Let them know that it is work, and it's their job. And when they are done, let them play. Let them have their free time. Don't appropriate any more of their time. How dare you!
