Bet that produces a backlash
That would be ok if the government freed up the employment sector to allow people to be employed without being tied up with loads of red tape.
NB I don't know of any computer work that can be done at home by people who are on benefits. I can't see how some of the seriously mentally ill can work for a start. I don't see how some of the disabled or chronically ill can work. Employers are highly ageist by the way so people who are fifty plus find it really hard to find a job.
