All long term unemployed should be pushed to work unless they have a very good reason for not working. The local council can give them a broom and tell them to sweep the streets in return for the check.

Businesses will not employ them. the extra cost can be passed onto the tax payer until some go and get/keep a job. Working for a week/month, doesn't make the person short term unemployed.

Will do nothing to solve the problems or debt, but will make it fairer.
