Obama's New Government Website "Change.Gov." Is A Changing
Office of the President-elect (whatever the hell that means) "Change.gov." ("America Serves") is editing.
Internet brownshirts must have alerted the "one" about his wording of requiring community service.
The words have now been changed to:
Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by setting a goal that all middle school and high school students do 50 hours of community service a year and by developing a plan so that all college students who conduct 100 hours of community service receive a universal and fully refundable tax credit ensuring that the first $4,000 of their college education is completely free. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.
Original wording:
Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.
Maybe Obama should have a wiki page instead if he really wants to have a honest and open government. We could see the edits then.
Hopey, changey indeed.
