Hillary's Big Nanny Hotline

By Michelle Malkin

When the Founding Fathers established the Constitution of the United States of America "to promote the general welfare," it is safe to say they could never have envisioned Hillary Clinton's latest welfare-promoting gimmick.

The legislation, co-sponsored by Texas Republican Sen.

Kay Bailey Hutchison (shame on you, Kay!) would provide $200 million to establish a nationwide community help line, including almost $4 million for Clinton's "home" state.

The federalized phone service would help callers find the "essential services they need - from information on child care to elder care, job training, schools, volunteer opportunities, housing, and countless other community needs...Someone could call and say, 'I need child care' or 'I need job training' or 'I need affordable housing' and we could direct them to not-for-profit agencies that can address the problem."

Not to mention the community bulletin boards at every local library, supermarket, and church.

Oh, and then there's the Internet that Hillary's old friend Al Gore invented, where countless Web sites such as www.govbenefits.gov "provide improved, personalized access to government assistance programs" for everyone from farmers to cops, students to veterans, victims of disaster, violence, abuse or crime, members of Alaskan Native villages, and citizens of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Republic of Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia.

But leave it to Hillary to attempt to "solve" yet another non-problem through government central planning.

From health care to education to the economy, it's the Clinton way.

Clinton's latest pet project is quite reminiscent of an earlier Clinton-Gore brainchild, the national "N11" hotline, which would have used the 211 number as a national clearinghouse for traffic information, such as road conditions and bus schedules.

Explaining the rationale for a federalized transportation report, then-Vice President Al Gore pontificated: "When parents are on the car phone talking to their kids explaining why they can't get home for dinner or can't do bedtime stories, that really has an impact on the quality of life."

He never did explain why it's the taxpayers' problem if those parents didn't check the local traffic reports on the radio or on television before leaving the office.

Friedrich Hayek, the late Nobel laureate economist, dissected the socialist Clinton-Gore central planning orthodoxy in "The Road to Serfdom:" "One argument frequently heard is that the complexity of modern civilization creates new problems with which we cannot hope to deal effectively except by central planning.

Another related problem with centralizing information is that the centralizers dictate which information gets disseminated.

If Hillary Clinton believes it is truly a legitimate function of the federal government to play Big Nanny referral operator in order to promote the general welfare, she should publicize her own private cell phone number, field the calls herself, and leave our pocketbooks alone.

Yes!! Now THAT's what I was talking about when I said let's target her!

Isn't this already a welfare state? So, this means over $4 million of taxpayer money to NY to increase even more welfare costs.

Boy, am I glad I got out! [img]graemlins/insane.gif[/img]

Only liberals in the government can say with a straight face that “there is so much information and data that we need a centralized entity to help manage the disbursement of that information and data to the public”, and then hire the most useless, lazy, incompetent, and dimwitted people to do the job.

Hey Ducth, just curious about the Manson family thing at the bottom of your post,what does that mean?

[Dutch]

The Manson family, lead by Charles Manson, was without a doubt the most sickening, sinister, and repugnant group of people to cohabitate.

The ties that bound the Manson family were sex, drugs, rock-n-roll, and murder. They were the embodiment of how society would function under true liberalism.

In spite of how heinous and deplorable their conduct and activities were, liberalism was what kept them all together and allowed Charlie’s perversions to continue.

liberals everywhere should rejoice in the fact that at least a few people during the 1960’s (and one in particular – Charlie) were able to live the life of a true liberal. The only reason why the Manson family existed and carried on was because they were all liberals. The Manson family imploded once one of their members wanted out of the lifestyle. Just as facts are like sunlight liberal vampires, it only took one Manson family member to recognize the truth and end the whole family’s existence. Just like how it takes only one fact to usually end a liberal’s argument.

richard, it is same en france. when we say systeme D is from verb demerder which means a derivative of merde which in english is that four letter word commence avec S. these people who navigate systeme are always in the know (ils marchents dans la merde) they walk in the doodle all the time and always get what they want (welfare, wealthy, poors etc)
