"Volunteers"

I was just watching the news this morning. It looks like a lot of the municipal governments are looking for volunteers to go to the various schools in the area in order to shovel out the driveways and parking lots. They want to make sure that the school busses can get the children to the schools, and that the staff have places to park their cars. There are a couple of ways they could do this: First of all, aren't all students today required to "volunteer" for some type of community service in order to graduate from high school? Shovelling snow should count as community service. I guess you could ask a Boy Scout troop to do it, but then NAMBLA and the ACLU, along with SEIU and the other public employee union thugs would be pitching a fit. Look at the fit they threw when they went after a retired man who volunteered his time to be a crossing guard in order to help keep school kids safe while they were waiting at a bus stop.

I have a better idea. How about going into the city and rounding up all the able bodied welfare recipients that are sitting home smoking crack or hanging out in the park drinking cheap wine and being the lazy bums that they are. Make them earn their entitlement for a change. While we are at it, how about sticking shovels in the hands of the left wing activists that use the homeless and the welfare bums as tools to advance their Marxist agenda. It would serve them right.
