Needs-based supply for the "poor" is one of the big failings of the
current system, to get rid of. Just give everyone something each X,
but less (e.g. 2/month, not 2/week).
Even without the hole you mention, this ends the economy in terms
of playing it. 2 paper/week is more than I need, you give it back
when I use it, I never have to participate. Give everyone 2/month,
regardless of need, and they need to budget, and then to earn
more they need to participate.
