Bring back the Civilian Conservation Corps.

Created by K.G. on April 16, 2013

During the great depression and the beginning of his presidency, Franklin Delano Roosevelt created the Civilian Conservation Corps which produced jobs for young men and gave back to the environment we live in. The work done around our country by the CCC can still be seen today, It also brought discipline to those enrolled and gave understanding to what honest hard work meant. Unfortunately the organization fizzled when WWII started, and was never reestablished. In our era of equality, this proposition would not only present jobs for young men, but any U.S. citizen capable of such work. If we are going to pay taxes, why don't they go to something like this?
Let us provide opportunity and take care of America.
