Sure, but better (less wasteful) to just give people money than employ them in busywork.

  No, because giving people a job means giving them a structured and social life, as well as a place in society and the feeling they contribute to it. This is very different from just giving people unemployment money, that then fuels a particular lifestyle that is hard to get out of (I have few friends that get trapped into this at some point).

  almost nothing is truly only busywork (besides, that’s belittling), so it’s better to employ people than give away money. employment has many beneficial side effects, like esteem, that free money doesn’t have.
