Phillip Inman's suggestion for a volunteer workforce of boomers (to make up for their luck & political resistance to wholesale tax reform) is all very well as an inter-generational poetical justice but of course not only involves the (sometimes difficult, as he acknowledges) management of volunteers, also presents a major problem around paid work.

Having more voluntary 'work' undermines any programme to make work pay, and to provide 'good work' for the young!
