It really depends on what the work requirements are.

Keep in mind that the government's unemployment stats are bogus, and even then their broadest measure shows 10%. Meanwhile shadowstats.com shows almost 25% (below). And the actual number of people on IRS rolls as holding jobs is only 50% of the working age people.

Until we stop the offshoring and the influx of illegals and H1B's, and truly bring the unemployment rate down, it may not be realistic to put additional burdens on people.'

Though I agree in theory, the requirements include an education or volunteer programs. If people get retrained they may qualify for work. They are only talking about able bodied working age people.
