Modern slavery: work for the dole
The Dole as we commonly refer to it here is the unemployment benefit, money the government grudging gives you when you have no work. In a socialist country like Australia this absorbs a significant proportion of the tax dollar (along with other welfare spending). But now Tony Abbott and his liberal government in association with their corporate masters have devise a scam whereby you must work to receive money for being unemployed.
Of course this is a massive cognitive back flip, you either have a job or you don’t.
This massive policy trapdoor allows all kinds of abuses and doesn’t reduce unemployment.
There is no incentive for employers to employ people who are unemployed, they would rather wait for the free government sponsored labor to be press ganged into service.
Employees at lower levels of wages or skills are likely to be displaced in favor to the ‘working for the dole’ slaves.
Unemployment then becomes revolving door in a race to the bottom for wages and condition, with many stuck in the ’employed on the scheme getting a job’ and replacing someone else who the becomes the next victim.
These schemes have been shown not to work everywhere they are implemented.
These schemes are just a way to scapegoat the unemployed and punish people who are already suffering.
Finally this is nothing more than a way to strip the minimal wealth of the battlers ( working poor ) and encourage the vulture corporates.
Tony Abbott this is your ‘workchoices’ moment, it’s all over.

This is a massive policy trapdoor through which Tony Abott will be falling himself when he loses the next election after implementing this harebrained scheme. Hahaha. It’s good for a laugh , though. He really IS as stupid as he looks.

Can they really be this stupid? YES THEY CAN!
Maybe you should send the slavers an email and tell them what you think of their slaver ways? Heres a list of all the slavers (work for the dole providers):

Thanks for your effort.
It would be interesting to hear what they said, but I think in most cases it would probably be just the standard corporate line of justifying their own parasitic existence.
