42. The policies and trail of events are regressive
on economic and social levels.

Rational would be to place the men in a public sector infrastructure trade apprentices or at least service service job and deduct the child support.

FDR did with WPA/CCC and Nixon (and Carter continued) did with CETA (as well as YOC and NYC for those under 18) in the 60s and 70s.

Direct Federal sector hiring went the way of the extremely inefficient and bureaucratic Job Training Partnership Act process under Reagan. Direct Federal job creation has since been a never on the table option though both parties should know better. Attempts to kill good governance multiply because of purges and the best talent leaving in droves by choice.
