i agree, but what is wrong with a government funded scheme that covers volantary work, i am sure that we could all think of worthwhile causes that are currently under/not even funded, that people with skills and a disabillity could both benefit and give the community the benefit of, it would not only give those people the chance to prove to society that they have no need to be discriminated against, and it wasnt just disabled, i remember the used to have a similar scheme for the unemployed back in the eighties CPU if i remember correctly, wether my views are oover the top, i just feel as a community we would benefit from people earning their benefits (if capable) oppose to a government that is quite happy to carry on sending out the giros, and fixing the unemployment figures.
i also understand the arguement that this could actually take full time jobs away from people, but as i say if it was centered around new or existing non paid community work, i dont see this a major problem
