This is where it gets a bit different from the WPA. Sure, you would still have a lot of those types of jobs, but by letting the lower levels of government administer the funds, they can direct them to the community's priorities. It could involve elder or child care services, it could be road and bridge building, or it could be bringing high-speed internet to the community by training people for the work of it. The possibilities are huge for a program like this in ways that not only put people to work, but help the overall community, as well.
PA has a program that covers part of wages for training and work. They set a minimum pay and there are other steps to go through. They help them do resumes and such too. We recently hired two new employees through them and had good success with that program. In our case they pay 50% of the wages for the first three months.

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
