since we're on the topic of leeches, what of the idea about those unemployed being required to perform community service as a condition of unemployment benefits?

What if those unemployed folks have dependents (say a disabled parent, or small children)? How would you address those needs?

Before you label me a bleeding heart, tree-hugging, berkenstock wearing, hemp smoking, handout taking liberal, I'm just tossing this out there for discussion as I have not formed an opinion yet.
