I remember going to a “job fair” years back that you could tell got government funding. I think they got X amount of dollars for every resume they helped create, but never really helped anyone with job leads or training (besides suggesting college or a trade school - kinda’ a no-brainer for most people).

This story is like the idea some genius had in our town; they would pick up the “homeless” panhandlers in a van, offer them snacks and water, and take them to the Career Center to fill out job applications.
The panhandlers here in our small city are seemingly at every intersection now, but most are NOT homeless, they are dropped off or drive there.
Amazingly, out of the dozens picked up, only ONE has accepted a job. The others cited various excuses why they couldn’t work an actual job, yet they can stand outside all day with a sign.
