Discouraging people from working is a feature, not a bug. The number one thing you can do to make free markets work better is reduce transaction costs. Generous unemployment benefits make it easier to hold out for the right job. In fact, we should start giving them to people who leave a job for any reason, not just the "good" ones. Making people desperate is not just a human cost, but an assault on the proper workings of a market economy. Funneling people to suboptimal jobs is something that has to be resolved anyway, eventually. So it's not a gain for society. |
