[QUOTE="passerby, post: 426279, member: 18461"] Have you gone to the Change.gov website? Read it, they are offering $4000 for 100 hours of service for college students, and setting a goal of 50 hrs/year for middle and high school students. Nothing is mandatory. Go to the source instead of buying into some hysteria pushed by someone withtheir own agenda. Since when is is it a bad thing to sacrifice for others? Relative sections from the site for the lazy: [B]Expand Service-Learning in Our Nation's Schools: [/B]Obama and Biden will set a goal that all middle and high school students do 50 hours of community service a year. They will develop national guidelines for service- learning and will give schools better tools both to develop programs and to document student experience. Green Job Corps: Obama and Biden will create an energy-focused youth jobs program to provide disadvantaged youth with service opportunities weatherizing buildings and getting practical experience in fast-growing career fields. [B]Require 100 Hours of Service in College: [/B]Obama and Biden will establish a new American Opportunity Tax Credit that is worth $4,000 a year in exchange for 100 hours of public service a year.
