im sorry but I don't see a problem with having 50 hours of community service in high school....
and I am not a fan of Obama...
50 hours is nothing, and I don't see how it could possibly hurt anything...
it's the fact that it's forced and required.
50 hours in middle school = 150 hours total
100 hours in high school = 400 hours total
100 hours in college = 200 hours (community college) 400 hours (bachelors), 500-600 hours (Masters), and 700-1000 hours (PhD).
That's insane--while middle and high schoolers do have spare time, forcing 100 hours, per year, in a regular college? Ridiculous; college students are busy enough, as is, and they often work during the summer to help pay for the expenses.
Couple this with the other bill mentioned here, and you have double-disaster...and remember that 2 years military service is without college deferment.
There's also a 3rd bill that would require you to attend 3 months training for your city or State.
Let's see, 2 years military service, 3 months training, and 750-1550 hours total community service? Sounds like Fascism mixed with Communism....oh boy...
if all 3 pass (or even just 2) I pity our up and coming generation; if they grow up in that they'll grow to like it and likely be completely indoctrinated that "that's just the way it is" once they've been through it all.
