He is pro slavery and wants a new generation to understand the value of involuntary servitude by making all schoolchildren in middle-school and high-school have to do "voluntary" work for the government. Thats also known as slavery. He seems to either want to get revenge, or say slavery is a good thing as long as its called by the oxymoron mandatory voluntary community service and as long as it is forced on everyone who is young. You also will not be able to go to College without performing "mandatory voluntary" community service. I'd like to hear about this from both the anti and pro slavery sides. | ||

Cant tell if you're being serious, but doesn't he pay for your college ($5000) in exchange for community service? Getting paid to do work is now slavery? | ||

But for college its a rather stupid idea since he could pay regular people the same amount to do the same work. To expect them to be more likely to do community service in the future is retarded. | ||

Getting paid to do work is now slavery? Being forced to work for the college part of this is still involuntary. Yet he calls it volunteer work. Its improper government control. Its bad. I can understand drafting if the security of the country is at stake, but forcing everyone who attends college to work for a "community" is at least forced labor. The middle-school and high-school parts of it are slavery. | ||

You may think it's a stupid idea, but not as stupid as you saying Obama is trying to force people into slavery as "revenge"? Get real. | ||

Why can't I say that? Why can't that be true? I put it out there merely as a possibility. I've heard from a lot of black racists and I'm pretty sure they would love it if that were the case. | ||

I've seen some people grasp at straws before, but this is beyond ridiculous. | ||
