People on benefits should do voluntary work or training

The idea

We should stop the benefit handouts and start a system where people on benefits have to

give something in return, i.e. clean our parks, roads, beaches, forests,   help in schools and hospitals or old people's homes. That way they contribute something to the rest of us who work to pay for their upkeep.  They should be forced to contribute to society in return for their benefit or at least attend some training schemes that would make them more employable.

Of course there would have to be different rules for single parents, but training courses with creches could be an option?

 

Why is it important?

Beca'use we can't keep on living in a society where some believe that they can just take but not give anything back.
