Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not so: In my scenario, the labor for any job would eat the entire voucher. (I'm assuming he's got a "limit 1 per customer" clause in the small print).

Sure, you can pick a job like that. But similarly, the voucher recipients could pick jobs that cripple the plumber financially.

Perhaps I'm not following you completely. Please give an example where that could happen, given the scenario I outlined above.

> my wife gave me a choice of getting a wal-mart type job or get out "...to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health to love and to cherish, from this day forward until death do us part." It's reading things like this that make me appreciate my wife more than I already did. Get a 'walmart type job' or get out? My wife would _never_ say that to…

As I get older, I am not sure if life is so simple anymore. Although I guess ultimately it boils down to this: women want to have children, and children cost money. The time in which women can have children is limited, so they can't sit around and wait for you to get a hold on life forever.

Fortunately for me there will be no children involved to cause this sort of problem.
