Too much like hard work

Working in a jobcentre is proving to be a real eye opener. A lot of people just expect the staff to bend over backwards to help them get the money that they expect and even sometimes demand as their right.
The attitude that they show is often just shocking and how some members of the staff haven't snapped occasionally and just slapped them constantly amazes me.
This got me thinking that if it wasn't so easy for them to get benefits they might make more of an effort to get a job.
The following idea is aimed at those people who just make absolutely no effort to do anything with their lives and just seem to live to make other peoples lives a misery with their aggressive behaviour and nasty attitudes.
The following idea which some may say is radical and crazy would reduce the number of people claiming benefits, and would generate drive and ambition in those who were succesful.
I propose that the jobcentre be placed at the top of a hill. There will be four towers at the corners of the building with a sniper at the top of each.
The field will be mined randomly and there will be catapults launching clay pitchers filled with boiling chip fat (oil is so middle ages).
All signers will be at the bottom of the hill and they will be armed with the weapons of their choice.
At opening times the signers will have to charge the hill and while avoiding flaming chip fat defend themselves from each other as there will only be a maximum of 100 available slots to sign.
The marksmen in the towers will be on a bonus for any fatalities as this will reduce in the long run the number of benefits seekers.
I know there are many genuine cases where people are seeking work and for those people I accept that we will be able to come up with an alternative, more pleasant way to help them.
It would certainly change peoples attitudes to working for a living!
