Labor should get substantially cheaper though. As it stands, people will only accept a job if it covers all their living expenses. Even if you offer to pay enough for half their bills, they'll keep looking for a job that can pay all their bills. With most of their expenses covered by the government, they would be willing to work for a lot less money than before - assuming they're willing to work at all.
