The Swedish work practice system brings in no money, it merely keeps its
victims on the dole for a bit longer instead of on totally inadequate
social security handouts. That's why I called it free labour. That's why
it's a real problem. That's why, in Britain where things have decayed much
further there is a real and developing movement against such "training
schemes" by their victims. That's why Militant Labour is in shit, because
they organize a lot of petty bureaucrats in positions like social workers
and training scheme officials, and they don't want to stir up the poor and
oppressed against their own supporters.

Cheers,

Hugh
