I think I would support this only if the worker required a job coach on hand.

It would probably be good to increase employment. In IL, the minimum wage is $1

an hour higher. That may put off a lot of employers.

I also believe they during an evaluation period, the employers should be exempt

from paying FUTA/SUTA/Workman's Comp on the wages.

Anything, to increase employment.
