H. R. 5741 - The new American slavery bill

So, The House is considering making "national service" mandatory for everyone between the ages of 18 and 42.

Re: H.R. 5741

Have you read that interesting document, the United States Constitution? Seems there's a bit in there - Amendment 13 - that prohibits involuntary servitude in this country. Evidently, slavery was once frowned upon in America.

If you vote in favor of this, will you be also advocating repeal of the 13th Amendment? The new law probably won't stand up to judicial review, unless President Osama can pack the Supreme Court with a few more revisionists like Ms. Kagan.
