One of Carl Paladino's proposals for New York State is a program entitled the Dignity Corps. Paladino states that this program is a direct descendant of FDR's Civilian Conservation Corps. from the New Deal era. Here is a video from his website about his new program.
Here are some questions to think about while watching the video:
How do people become welfare recipients?
Is the current welfare system fair in that people receive welfare checks without having to do any work?
Are there any possible flaws in Paladino's plan?
What other "work camps" have we seen throughout the course of history?
