Have an increase in Newstart, but lets get serious and start putting time limits on it.
The Government can also do more to provide greater incentives to enter the workforce by lowering effective marginal tax rates
For those coming off welfare.
Time-limits won't work.
The dole is NO LONGER merely a short-term payment, for many.
The dole was never meant to be a lifestyle choice, if you want more money i suggest getting a job.
All these dole bludgers crying out for more money yet none of them will say who will get taxed more to pay for this extra sit down money
No-one is suggesting that it IS a lifestyle choice.
And yes, it was ORIGINALLY intended to be for a short time only.
But due to many factors, for many this is no longer the case.
It doesn't automatically mean they're work-shy, or that they've
never worked.
Sure, there are bludgers collecting the dole, but there are bludgers
everywhere, not just on the dole.
But they ARE a dwindling minority.
