I have no objections to WPA-style programs, and think that likely would be a good solution. Heck, it worked once before.

The problem is that in addition to having let our infrastructure decay, we've let our social infrastructure decay.

That's no more an obstacle today than it was in 1935; the original WPA was an emergency measure, just as our notional revival would be.
