Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth

Yes, and Canadians are better educated. Something like 40% of Canadians have post-secondary degrees compared to 25% in Britain. With more graduates, salaries will be lower.

Employers in Canada would be much more selective. Someone with only two jobs after graduation would be seen as odd and undersirable.
Yes, but in Canada you pay for your Uni, so have to have jobs before. In Europe, since the state pays for most of it, and usually parents the rest, you don't have to have jobs right through high school to help pay for uni.
And a higher degree doesn't equal a better salary, since except for academic/scientific professions, it's not normally needed.
You couldn't live in many areas of the UK on a Canadian graduate starting salary, because our cost of living is higher. That's why our salaries are too.

There appears to be some kind of prerequisite system on NI to claiming JSA...but tell me, can you opt out of NI?
No you can't. JSA comes in 2 flavours, income based and contribution based.
They both pay exactly the same. It's just a way for the Tresury to see if NI going in to the pot exceeds JSA payments going out.
In other words - if you're contributions don't make you eligible for JSA(CB) then you get awarded JSA(IB).

No I can't...and nor does it stop me from getting JSA. So it isn't an insurance...plain and simple. It is a taxation.
It's insurance.
You're forced to pay car insurance too - is that a tax?

You're not forced to work.
Living on JSA long term is not a viable option.

Not just JSA no, but there are plenty of other benefits. Visit a council estate.
