and participating in agriculture education programs including Future Farmers of America and 4-H.

I believe that was the real point here. I don't think is is so much the prohibition, they are camouflaging going after the rural and farm kids he can not reach any other way.

“The new regulations, first proposed August 31 by Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, would also revoke the government’s approval of safety training and certification taught by independent groups like 4-H and FFA, replacing them instead with a 90-hour federal government training course.”

...90-hour federal government training course....

Anyone care to guess what the 90 hours of “federal government training” will contain?

Perhaps something along the lines of what is in this?

"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set," he said Wednesday. "We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

In the >>> EXACT <<< same PUBLIC statement he said he would make federal assistance conditional on school districts establishing service programs and set the goal of 50 hours of mandatory service a year for middle school and high school students.

...50 hours of mandatory service a year for middle school and high school students...

Just as he was three years ago, he is attempting mandatory control of the kids. Only now the monster is going after the rural and farm kids he can not reach any other way.

With the power grab at family farms, he wanted to make himself the all powerful, all knowing fed-gov the ultimate authority, placing himself above the parents.

Back in the late seventies I applied for a job for the local CCC(Civil Conservation Corps)

I got accepted and was thrilled I would be earning extra money for college and do work outdoors working in campgrounds, planting trees, clearing creeks, etc.

What we did was sit indoors and preformed mental and physical testing.

My favorite was seeing how fast one could put round and square blocks in their corresponding holes.

I kid you not....

Did I forget this was under the Carter Administration?
