theflyingexecutive posted:except social programs and work programs don't have layer after layer of administration and stockholders skimming off the top The Tory government moved the back to work program to the private sector to get that sweet sweet private sector efficiency. They are keeping it going even after a study showed the private program cost vastly more and had a worse outcome that doing nothing. e.g. You were less likely to get a job after their intervention vs no intervention at all.
