Rationale

This legislation will create increased access to welfare while giving incentive to work. It also frees our youth from the obligation of military service to focus more on education and the job market, while retaining volunteers willing to serve, and separating the wheat from the chaff.

Proposed Changes

1

Welfare Conditionality
Previous law
Strict time limits on benefits
Mandatory work-for-benefits

2

Military Service Policy
Previous law
National service for those 18-20
Volunteer professional army
