the system screwed up the economy, making it hard to get good jobs. the same system should pay for those who cannot work.

Yes you should settle for that for now. Find a job in a store where you can earn comission and spend your free time or lunch breaks interviewing for jobs in your field. Eventually you'll find one. I'm certainly not an employer but I think if I were I would hands down pick the person who was willing to work hard at a crappy job to get to me than the one who sat back and took welfare. The first person will work their BUTT off to get what they want and isn't that what an employer wants to see? The second one just shows me they are too proud and too lazy...which makes me think they will have issues with my authority or with starting at the bottom like everyone else and won't give me 110% either.
The system is already overloaded paying for single parents who have no other options, for people on disability, for people who have legitmate reasons that they CANNOT work. You can. So you should. You won't starve if you start looking for a temporary job now. Go be a salesman somewhere, for instance. That will pay your bills while you continue to search for a job in your field.
Damn I'm an undergrad and even I know this much. You better believe I'll take Mickey D's over welfare if I can't get a job in my field when I graduate. You can't always get the deluxe cable package.
