The problem with that is that sometimes they cant afford clothes that look smart. Because they are on the dole.

Baby Bonus.

Age Pensions

Tax breaks for companies

Should we just have random drug testing of all the population and anyone with drugs in their system are tasered on the spot.

Yep, if quality of dress is important, then lift the dole above the poverty line.

If they can afford tattoos, piercings, cigarettes and drugs, I think they cough up a few bucks for decent clothes.

Another government department to waste more millions. The fraudsters that get the contracts would end up costing more than the dole payments.

Nice to know that the middle class has been expanded to include entire companies, all politicians regardless of personal wealth and of course those free-loading bastards the retired pensioner; most of which would be surprised to learn about their social and financial upgrade.

Not much of a deep thinker, are ya?

They used to when it was the CES and they would get sent to an interview too, and more than likely score a job.

Times have a changed.

A client could turn up to the Sarina Russo office dressed 'ready for work' for four years and still not score an interview.

Why waste people's time just because they have plenty of it?

The question to ask is, why cant the job agencies match clients with employers?
