Abstract | Examines the feasibility of "workfare," a key feature of welfare reform. Uses Current Population Survey (1986) and Bureau of Labor Statistics (1988) to estimate the ratio of potential workfare workers to available jobs. Concludes that, at best, this ratio is 6.2:1 in nonmetro areas and 11.0:1 in metro areas. (SV) |
