Obama's Civilian Army Begins
I could find nothing from anyone in the MSM about this HB1388 that creates his army, even to using the word "uniform" The House passed legislation to create Obama's promised civilian service force, ostensibly to vastly expand "volunteerism" in the U.S., via H.R. 1388. The mess passed 320-105, so you can thank BOTH sides of the aisle for the new Obama army. Bet you didn't hear much about it last night, did you! AIG! AIG! Smokescreen!The "Gift Act" as it is called, creates several NEW corps of "volunteers" in addition to vastly expanding Americorps. I'm sure these "volunteers" will be counted in Obama's "save or create 3.5 million jobs" tally. Critics have warned that passage of the legislation is a backdoor way to require mandatory service under the guise of "volunteerism." It will require individuals, both males and females, to give 3 years of "service". George Soros is doing the happy dance. The Congressional Budget Office estimates this one's gonna cost $6 BILLION or so. These "volunteers" will be paid, and where and how they will volunteer is determined by the government. Health care advocacy, environmental advocacy, educational advocacy, energy audits...there will be lots of opportunities modeled after ACORN/Hitler Youth/Saul Alinsky's playbook. It's no accident that Obama's civilian service "opportunities" come at the same time Barry wants to limit your charitable donation deductions. By making donations only partially deductible, Obama will clearly reduce the amount of money available to private charities in the United States. Why would he want to do this? Why would anyone want to do this? Click the above link to read the entire article -- Stunning Posted by: Sherry 2009-03-26 |
