You're missing an important point. The people who can't be bothered to keep up the false pretence of searching for work have gotten so deep into the hole that they've basically given up and gotten to the psychological point where they can't even bring themselves to engage. . Hitting them over the head with sanctions isn't going to help.
The lifelong dole claimerswho make a living gaming the system will never be hit with a sanction because they know how to game the system and keep from getting caught in the net.
This doesn't actually punish anyone who needs punishment, it just makes the punisher feel better about themselves, so they can say See, We did a Thing and it Had an Effect. Look, that's a number.
Everything else, I know it's in my head. It's just the attitude of some people that bugs the hell out of me.
