Description: Prime Minister John Key holds a document in one hand and raises his other hand into the air, extending a finger. A man and woman walking by watch the Prime Minister and the woman says, "Goodness, is the PM giving the fingers to the Welfare Working Group's report?" The man responds, "Not exactly... testing which way the wind's blowing before commenting on it." Context - A welfare working group report led by economist and former Chair of the New Zealand Commerce Commission, Paula Rebstock, is calling for fundamental changes to reduce the state's "unacceptably high" welfare bill. The report's key recommendation is to replace all existing benefits, including the Domestic Purposes and Sickness Benefits, with a single Jobseeker Support payment. The report also recommends extending the obligation to look for paid work to the majority of beneficiaries between age 18 and 64. According to Rebstock, only a third of the 352,700 working-aged beneficiaries are currently required to look for work - all 67,000 on unemployment benefits, 43,000 sole parents with no children under age 6, and 9,000 sickness beneficiaries who have been assessed as being able to work at least 15 hours a week.

Minister for Social Development Paula Bennett with a grinning pumpkin for a head holds a newspaper with a headline reading 'Community max work programme'. In the ground nearby is stuck a stick with a label reading 'jobs'. Context - Community Max is a scheme funded to employ young people who are paid the minimum wage to work on community projects. $38 million has been spent but there has been criticism of the government as opposition MPs produced evidence of projects they say were a waste of taxpayer funds. One of the projects was a community garden in which a single pumpkin was found. But Green Party Co-leader Metiria Turei has said "Community economic development schemes are fantastic when they work well. Many projects funded under Community Max have successfully taught young people new skills, created real jobs, and revitalised communities," "In many cases, Community Max is used as a band-aid to paper over the cracks of long-term unemployment. It is no surprise that some projects dissolve after 26 weeks of funding if they have started frome not bee Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
