The Newer Deal

"We should have learned a lesson from the New Deal and put 2 million people to work in twenty-first-century versions of the Civilian Conservation Corps and the Works Progress Administration (59)."  I just had to start with this because I firmly believe that the New Deal, had it not been for the discriminating nature of it, would've been flawless.  I came up with an idea that would work as a pseudo-alphabet soup plan.  I'm calling it the HSRA, the Historical Site Restoration Administration, which would work in congruence with the National Register of Historic Places.  Its main goal would be to rehabilitate historic structures across the U.S.  Utilizing construction, interior design and landscaping skills, this association could put many people who either have degrees or certificates in these professions, or those who are being trained in these professions to work.  What do you all think?
