I was serious too. Where do you think most affairs happen? Business professionals need a safe place to sneak out during their lunch break for a quickee!
Here's another problem I spotted: there would be rampant fraud.
Part of the plan is that the government would pay part of the salary to encourage companies to expand. If I heard correctly, Underwood said that the gov't would pay up to $45,000 of the salary of any one who is hired through the "America Works" program. This would effectively enable companies to expand, which normally wouldn't be able to do so due to lack of funds.
I expect that people would "hire" others for a fee. The workers would pocket the money and never do any actual work. Effectively taking a welfare handout. The oversight of this to avoid fraud would be cost prohibitive and we'd be right back where we started - welfare fraud is also rampant and too difficult/expensive to prevent.
