New World Order Crony Gary Hart Calls for “Civic Duty”

Citing none other than Pericles and John F. Kennedy, CFR member and New World Order minion Gary Hart declares on the liberal Huffington Post website that “the notion of dedication, participation, and service is as old as the Republic itself.” Hart says the globalist front man Barack Obama has awakened “a renewed spirit of national service” and the “American Republic must now respond.” For Hart and the Greek elitist Pericles, those who do not respond are “useless” and devoid of “civic virtue.”

For Hart and the banker front man Obama, it is time for the plebs to give “something back” to the republic. Unfortunately, the United States is no longer a republic. It is a bankster dominated plutocracy.
For Obama, Gary Hart, and the global elite, it is not enough that many Americans volunteer to help those in need within their local communities — the “renewed spirit of national service” must be mandated by law. Last September, Congress passed the Serve America Act, legislation creating the Education Corps, the Healthy Futures Corps, the Clean Energy Service Corps, the Opportunity Corps, and the Reserve Corps, among other “initiatives.” During his Inaugural Address, Obama declared this expensive and burdensome expansion of government represents “a new era of responsibility.”
For Obama and the Democrats, however, national service transcends volunteerism. In a speech on national service at the University of Colorado last year, Obama promised that as president he would “set a goal for all American middle and high school students to perform 50 hours of service a year, and for all college students to perform 100 hours of service a year.”
Note that Obama did not say those who volunteered. He said the government will demand all students serve. Once upon a time this was called indentured servitude or slavery. Now it is called “a renewed spirit of national service.”
“Problem number one with grand schemes for universal voluntary public service is that they can’t be both universal and voluntary,” notes Michael Kinsley. “If everybody has to do it, then it’s not voluntary, is it? And if it’s truly up to the individual, then it won’t be universal. What advocates of this sort of thing generally have in mind is using the pressures of social conformity and the powers of the state indirectly to remove as much freedom of choice as possible.”

In 2006, Obama’s Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, called for compulsory universal service. “It’s time for a real Patriot Act that brings out the patriot in all of us,” Emanuel wrote in The Plan: Big Ideas for America, co-authored with Bruce Reed. “We propose universal civilian service for every young American. Under this plan, All Americans between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five will be asked to serve their country by going through three months of basic training, civil defense preparation and community service.”
Rahm was not alone in his demand the youth of America be press-ganged into “service.” On the “America Serves” page of Obama’s transition website, the following appeared:
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.
After a firestorm of criticism, Obama’s people revised the text and removed the word “require” (see Paul Joseph Watson, Obama Website Scrubs Mandatory Community Service Call, November 10, 2008).
“Our children, as well as ourselves, are independent individuals. We are not resources to be drawn upon by politicians. Nor do we owe our labor to the government,” complained J.D. Tuccille on the Examiner website.
