It is called workfare, as opposed to welfare. I think we should be doing this now.

In the past people had to do things like dig ditches or build the hoover dam. Today it doesn't have to be physical labor. People can do work on a computer. If you are an out of work project manager you can do project management on the computer from your house. These people would in fact be managing work from the program itself. If you are really unqualified to do anything, worst case you can watch movies and then rate them. There is always more work to do.
