Answer:

C. Created make-work jobs that provided no necessary service

Step-by-step explanation:

Federal Emergency Relief Administration initially created several government funded jobs in order to reduce the amount of unemployment that exist during the Great Depression.

But, a lot of the jobs provided by the government provide little to actual value that gained a lot of criticism from the government.

Example of several make work jobs that created at that time: Counting cars that parked on the public road, cleaning toys from the daycare that actually can easily be done by the daycare employees, etc.
