I also heard something today about a mandantory 1000 hours a year (might have been 100) for seniors to volunteer their time helping in the community. And teens having to volunteer something like half that number on community service.
Yep I think it was 100 hours but then you get a tax credit or something. I'm totally against anything MANDATORY. If they want to make something volunteer and give a tax credit then go for it. But mandatory? NO WAY. And I can't imagine what a mess this would be!!!! Especially considering how many people wouldn't want to be there in the first place!
