A right to work. Umm interesting, one part of me wants to say yes, another wants to say no.
How many of the statistic you have provided want to work? I know form personal expericane that whenever I needed a job, I have really had no problem getting one. Remember that I left school in 1984 a time in the UK when we had massive unemployment, even then I had no problems finding work. So I guess the real question is: Work is it, should it be a right? I think another solution and a better one to my mind is based around the whole concept of money. Lets just get rid of it! It causes too many problems in the world.
