Can you agree that there are more people than jobs? (As there are 1.6 million unemployed, that seems like you can)
Can you agree that there are always going to be more people than jobs?
If so, we face several options, and I'm wondering which you'd consider best;
1) We make the large pool of unemployed play musical chairs for the smaller pool of jobs
2) We remove benefits from those without a job
3) We find those who can live full and contented lives on the bare minimum, and give them dole, focusing our benefits budget on those who actually want help into work.
