92. Yes! Why Not!
Who needs to eat! Maybe they can all just fish the great lakes in their newfound spare time! I really think you've hit on something here.

If we can just figure out a way to teach people that unemployment is an opportunity! An opportunity to spend a few precious moments with your children before you starve to death (or freeze). Maybe it wont happen. Maybe they can convince the grocery store and the electric company to join the utopia! I'm sure the utility companies will take a compassionate stance on this. Can't pay your heating bill? Well, that's fine, we'll just give it away! We can just explain the situation to Detroit Electric and Heating. Listen, a robot has my job now and I can't pay my bills, I'm going to the park with my kids. You're cool with that right? Great!

As we wander on down that road from bad idea to totally ludacris...
