It's ridiculous. It's an ill-thought throw-money-at-it solution, when the problem isn't lack of cash, it's more emotional and psychological. $2000 per unemployed person of support services could go a long way towards building self-esteem and getting people ready for jobs they love. Improved accessibility, affordability and quality of childcare is also necessary. Flexible hours are necessary. Family friendly employers are necessary. A better recognition of te value of volunteer contributions to the economy is necessary.
