Short term: Pro-rated jobs should have pro-rated benefits. There shouldn't be any advantage (in fact a skill drain hit) for breaking up jobs.

Medium/long term: Benefits really need to be a function of the government that taxes cover for all workers.

Here's a better idea: no benefits allowed. Cash only. Then employment would have lower barriers to entry. Two employees working 20 hours each should cost exactly the same as one working 40.

Health Care should be handled by a single payer.
