Would the current generation of Americans respond well to a modern version of the WPA?

FDR established the WPA during the Great Depression

Americans out of work could draw a salary, out of the US Treasury, in exchange for working on infra-structure projects, like dams and highways and the like.

Given the current circumstances, if nearly all commerce had to shut down, would Americans sign on to a program that offered a paycheck in exchange for infrastructure work?

I wonder.
