What were "public works projects"? What famous ones were part of the New Deal? What public works projects would you recommend for our society today?

Please post your thoughtful response by 11:59:59pm on 3/11/10.


Public works projects were projects that employed unemployed citizens for a chance to help out the community and get paid to do so. TVA (tennessee valley (I don't remember what the last word was, Agency?)) went around Tennessee to help construct power plants and dams. We could use a project like this but for Obama's new healthcare situation. Train people to use medical techniques and equipment. It could help for unemployed citizens and for people who acquire medical assistance.
