i wonder if the government is worsening the unemployment problem on purpose, so they can dismantle welfare systems and replace them with privately ran systems. At least they have made re-educating harder for adults and I dont think unemployement office is getting nearly enough funding as it should. They also made it harder for employers to even get job applications by forcing people to spam them. Though I dont think there is any grand conspiracy to worsen unemployment, there is no need when you can just handle the problem badly instead, as doing bad job doesnt have any consequences. People will vote the same anyway after couple of years.
