Ok, I see you. Fraud is hard to fight against. Then perhaps there should be an additional standard to the employment caveat. Maybe, the employee needs to be verified before the subsidy is issued, I have no idea. Either way a money laundering scheme is a money laundering scheme, if feds are alert enough they'll bust them.

You also bring up the underlying problem that simply offering a cold hard cash Mincome is far too idealistic, which I mentioned in this thread and completely agree with. I was sorta letting that slide and offering a "what if." LET ME HOPE wasoxygen!
