Sorry, but this is nothing like Obama proposing mandatory public service for students. He hasn’t done anything officially yet, but he has talked about it, as well as talked about creating a civilian force that rivals the size of the military. All Reagan was doing was recognizing outstanding voluteers with awards. How does that even comapre?
I don’t agree with Beck that Obama is trying to create some sort of Hitler Youth, but he does seem to believe in public service and that the government should force/push people into doing it. Volunteerism is good, just keep the government out of it.
