CCC for Youths
- Share via
With all the talk about unemployed youth why don’t we start up the old CCC that put the youth into camps all over the country? They built fire roads, maintained trails and firebreaks and maintained buildings in the parks and forests of the country. They had classes in English and math in the evenings and learned how to work. Many went on to successful careers. One even became director of the national parks. Now is the time to do something.
