Training Americans for Dependency One Bite at a Time
By Robert Weissberg

Over the last century America has gone from a nation that prized self-reliance to one where  millions seem unbothered by dependency. For a political leader just to hint at curtailing entitlements or adding a work requirement certifies him as evil.

Most school clubs meet at lunch time.

Colleges put a ridiculous amount of importance on clubs and extra-curricular activities when considering admissions.

Pretty smooth move.
