I agree with the idea in principle but the details are where you find the real answer.
What will "manual labor" mean? Will the people need a medical exam before starting work? How many people will supervise with how many layers of administration to push the paper around. What "quality standard" for completion will be applied to the job and how many consultants will need to be hired to come up with this. Will the labor have an an impact on existing jobs, if so more consultants and lawyers to argue it out. Contract it out or use existing bureaucracy? Retraining of supervising bureaucrats by more consultants, or develope a bidding process for the contractors. Meetings,meetings, and more meetings.
This is how government really works.
