Well you would obviosly have some kind of weaning off of the benefit to encourage people to take minimum wage jobs. Perhaps you keep 75% of the first 5k and 50% of the next 5k and so on until you are off the benefit.
The big key here is that the majority of people will use this money to help themselves be less of a burden and we wouldnt see it happen.
A small minority will flush all of the money away and do it in a visable manner. We need to accept that a cost of a program like this is abuse and thats okay because the cost of preventing that abuse costs more.
