This is kicking the proverbial can down the road, but doesn't solve the issue. If one country implements this and surrounding countries don't, what's stopping then from saying "shove your taxes" and moving? It's a tax either way, whether they pay the tax or hire useless workers.

Furthermore, I think hiring workers that won't work is the wrong way to go. We're already on the path as many jobs that exist today can, should, and will be automated because they just aren't very difficult or inherently valuable. Once hired, these absent workers would still be required to work in some capacity, because no company is going to pay people to not do anything and not even warm a seat.
