Voting deadline: April 2152
Description[?]:
| The principle of the Minimum Income Bill isn't giving money just because we are all generous and kind. We ain't. Or well, I am not. Its principle is lettling people with no familiar economical support live while he finds a suitable job, but not forever. One year and a half to seek for a job should be enough for all, extendable to three years in low developed zones. Don't let lazy people rely on the system. If someone is found unemployed even after the one\three years, no matter the reason, he'll stop receiving government support. Sure, someone simply won't find a job even if they put all their will but, unfortunately, we can't help all. However, people who can't afford to get a job for psychical or physical problems are exent from the time limit and are benefited with a special pension. They are the only justified that can't exploit the minimum income. |
