Article Thirteen
- "Section 1; Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude; except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
Apparently neither the White House Staff nor the members of the US House of Representatives can read; what is clear is that they did not read Article Thirteen of the United States Constitution, cited above. That 'Article' was added to the Constitution for very good reasons, and neither it nor any of the other Articles are to be abridged without the consent of the governed. If they could read and comprehend what the words mean, then all should understand that the legislation that the House just passed is Unconstitutional!
The Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act, known as the GIVE Act(*see important note below) was passed yesterday by a 321-105 margin and now goes to the Senate.
When you have a dictator that is not yet an adult, it seems that some very strange things happen on the way to trying to govern a nation. This latest attempt to spit upon yet another amendment to the Constitution must be challenged and rejected-but this time the authors of this attempt to seize the lives of US citizens, for the shoddy political aims of a childish dictator who apparently cannot even read; should be punished.
After all just how many members of congress or the White House have volunteered to serve this nation, (service in the Israeli Defense Forces does not count) in any way whatever that involves the term involuntary? That actual number cannot be very high given the degree of self-absorbsion among that crowd-of-certified-criminals who refer to themselves as politicians.
"Government-mandated "community service" is integral to Barack Obama's vision of "change." Obama has described such service as a key element of creating "a new era of responsibility - a recognition on the part of every American that we have duties to ourselves, our nation and the world; duties that we do not grudgingly accept, but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character than giving our all to a difficult task." [Duties that are self-created and self-fulfilling]
"The problem with such service, apparently, is that it is neither mandated nor brokered by the government. So from the perspective of those who believe that life should be organized by the state, such spontaneous service simply doesn't count." [given the revulsion of so many in congress against the government being allowed to run something like a public health care plan-it is difficult to understand this government's passion to draft every person in the country (all the way up to 65 years of age) depending on what skills might be needed by the government, at discount rates, inside a totally government controlled legion of politically neutered bodies - in the military you have no right to speak your political thoughts]? "Before it created a small but significant scandal, the Obama campaign's position paper on national service promised that as president he would "inspire" Americans to render "universal voluntary service. It was not explained how service could be both "universal" and truly "voluntary." [In less than two months on-the-job; Obama has gone from being an inspirational figure-head to becoming a leader of criminally-inclined incompetents that are rapidly destroying the idea that Barack ever possessed any judgment, when it comes to 'understanding character traits' in those he appoints to high or important offices; anywhere within his "administration." So why should anyone want to emulate a man who is rapidly proving that he's just about the dumbest kid on the block-especially when it comes to who should serve in "public service"] (1)
"The Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act; in section 6104 of the bill, entitled "Duties," in subsection B6, the legislation states that a commission will be set up to investigate, "Whether a workable, fair, and reasonable mandatory service requirement for all able young people could be developed, and how such a requirement could be implemented in a manner that would strengthen the social fabric of the Nation and overcome civic challenges by bringing together people from diverse economic, ethnic, and educational backgrounds."
Section 120 of the bill also discusses the "Youth Engagement Zone Program" and states that "service learning" will be "a mandatory part of the curriculum in all of the secondary schools served by the local educational agency."
"The legislation, slated to cost $6 billion over five years, would create 175,000 "new service opportunities" under AmeriCorps, bringing the number of participants in the national volunteer program to 250,000. It would also create additional "corps" to expand the reach of volunteerism into new sectors, including a Clean Energy Corps, Education Corps, Healthy Futures Corps and Veterans Service Corps, and it expands the National Civilian Community Corps to focus on additional areas like disaster relief and energy conservation," reports Fox News.
The Senate is also considering a similar piece of legislation known as the "Serve America Act," which also includes language about "Youth Engagement Zones".
"Fears about Obama's plans to create involuntary servitude were first stoked in July 2008, when Obama told a rally in Colorado Springs, "We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded."
Despite denials that Obama plans to institute a mandatory program of national service, his original change.gov website stated that Americans would be "required" to complete "50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year". The text was only later changed to state that Americans would be "encouraged" to undertake such programs." (2) Does any of the above garbage leave you with a warm and fuzzy feeling about just how well intentioned our Boy-Dictator is being, when it comes to using or abusing the youth of this nation, in a cause or causes he has yet to specifically name? Moreover the world is changing so fast now that it is almost impossible to tell the players any more, without first Goggling their names. Our foreign policy is something that seems to change every two weeks or so- along with whichever bunch of 'yes-people" are either currently in favor or under investigation-so how will having a civilian Youth Corp. to augment the US military be of any direct help to our soon to become permanent Foreign Legions?
And, since both the volunteer military and the volunteer youth corp. will get script for pay, when compared to the huge and private-military-contractors (mercenaries), that will also be serving in the same places overseas with the underpaid US military and in US cities with the conscripted volunteer Youth Corp: The question has to be raised-What's it all for Barack; are we emulating Il Duce, the Third Reich or maybe the Communist Youth Brigades?
Of course we'll never know the specifics until AFTER the legislation is passed-if history has any bearing here-on how things will continue to be done on Obamanation's watch? Why don't we do something really revolutionary this time: Why don't we mandate that this entire Black Hole be discussed among the people whose loved ones will be taken, and whose lives will be impacted? Isn't that something that the Constitution had in mind when it left everything up to the people to decide, instead of to the bought and paid for hacks that have hijacked our national voice and stolen our treasury? This "new concept" of consulting people ought to especially apply to this Dictator who lacks vision, and is a total-stranger to experience as shown by his total lack of concentration on any of the real problems that he inherited.
Had he been the 'leader' he claimed to be he would never have appointed so many proven failures to key offices throughout his administration. But then maybe that's why the White House is now run by Israeli-Americans; as typified by Rahm Emanuel, the snake who apparently came up with this cute little number to keep American youth busy. In 2006 Rahm called this "Universal Civil Defense Training," I guess that fits nicely if you've spent your obligatory two year stint in the Israeli Defense Forces (but NOT in the US military). I did six years in the US Air Force, belligerently, but managed an honorable discharge anyhow. It was a jail sentence that seemed interminable, but that was the late 50's and it was not optional.
This time the Congress ought to apologize to the nation for failing to think this piece of garbage through, before they "put it to a vote" as they have always done, since Bush Junior stole the White House.
