We can discuss where the money comes from, but the idea isn't pie-in-the-sky wild. I don't disagree with you.

It makes sense if you think about it (assuming my thoughts are correct, I'm in the US). If you're employed, you are contributing through your taxes. Just because you're unemployed, it doesn't mean your contributions pause. Now, should they? That's a good question, but the current implementation makes sense. I imagine it does incentivize people to look for employment.

Man, Omnifocus (and most of the Omni suite) seems so good, but it's so expensive. I absolutely am not opposed to paying for services, but a $10/mo subscription service or a $50+ app seems crazy for a task tracker.
