Christopher Dodd wants your children.

Some people look at children and see simple innocence.

Some look at a child and see the future.

Some people look at children and see the unbroken thread of humanity through time.

Christopher Dodd looks at children and sees an untapped resource of unpaid slave labor.

And how does he plan to exploit this vast reservoir of slave labor?

By turning every school in America into a forced-labor camp.

Requiring high school students to perform community service will give them a chance to acquire new skills while meeting the needs of their communities, Dodd said.

These children were forced to "volunteer" to be test subjects in Product Testing of the new Thalidomide-Flavored Pop Secret Popcorn.

Oh, sure. When Kathie Lee PAYS children to work in HER sweatshops, she's suddenly Miss Queen Bitch.

But Dodd wants to turn every school in America into one where children HAVE to work FOR FREE and he's some kind of statesman? Doubt it.

And I somehow doubt that the choices of projects children can (be forced to) "volunteer" for will not include the DEFEAT CHRISTOPHER DODD campaign, or the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws or any other organization the Authoritarians don't approve of.
