President Obama designates September 11th as a "National Day of Service and Remembrance," calling on Americans to participate in community projects like hammering shingles and assembling care packages. The hosts criticize the move as a way to keep the public busy and "serve" the government rather than focusing on job creation. The website Serve.gov is highlighted as an expensive government project promoting this initiative.

The hosts examine the $11.4 billion raised for Haiti relief, noting that much of it flows through foundations led by Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. They compare this to the 2004 tsunami relief efforts, discovering that the original "freedomcorps.gov" website has been quietly morphed into "serve.gov." They question the lack of public accounting for these massive cash donations.

### Serve.gov, Mandatory Volunteerism and Corporate Influence

- **Episode:** [114: Obama's Pitch](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/114-obama-s-pitch.md)
- **Published:** 2009-07-19

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/114-obama-s-pitch/chapter/serve-gov-mandatory-volunteerism-and-corporate-influence.md

The launch of Serve.gov and the Corporation for National and Community Service signals a move toward mandatory volunteerism for American citizens. The board of directors includes representatives from the pharmaceutical and energy industries, suggesting a deep tie between government initiatives and big business. Critics argue these programs are designed to habituate the public, particularly children, to working for the state without compensation.
