People are afraid that it will not happen and that they will be left for one or two months without money. We know from our offices that this happens. Perhaps the simplest approach would be to let people keep the money for two or three months, see how their new jobs go and then leave the system. It is a chicken and egg situation. Someone must take the plunge first. Going a week without money is not an option for most people.
